I like Windows 11. Wanna say thank you to the devs and maybe get some positivity going.
I just need more choices from WinDynamicDesktop (changes wallpaper relative to time of day) & I'll be as happy as a clam.

The WFH setup. A slight upgrade from my beige cube. Desk, shelves, light = DIY’d
For us Windows folks, it's the "Beach" theme that is available through the "WinDynamicDesktop" application.

Also, you can use AutoDarkMode just to switch color mode paired with WinDynamicDesktop to change wallpapers between of light and dark variants.

WinDynamicDesktop 5.0.0 Release
You can download the update from GitHub. It will be available on the Microsoft Store as soon as it gets approved.
- Every detail in 22581 is amazing! Very smooth theme transaction. Now waiting for auto theme changing Day/Night
- My phone has a wallpaper that changes based on time. Is there a way to mimic this with rainmeter?

Powertoys Peek - does this feature need to be included natively in future version of Windows?
yes
-
PowerToys Release 0.70 with Mouse Without Borders and PowerToys Peek
I meant this one
I hope you can look at the features of QuickLook because like the guy above said, it's currently vastly superior :)

How do you all feel about Windows?
There is QuickLook for Windows although is not as good as the macOS one: https://github.com/QL-Win/QuickLook
- Preview exel and word without have it installed, like a pdf file, no edition, just to visualise.

Whatever happened to Peek for Powertoys?
You can use QuickLook in the meantime.
-
Lightweight, offline, documents viewer (mainly PDF, PPT, Word)
QuickLook is pretty useful. It is basically the Windows Version of MAC's QuickLook.
-
File-Explorer that can display Readme.md files.
I've been using QuickLook for years, functions just like Preview in macOS (hitting the spacebar after selecting a file pops open a window with the content): https://github.com/QL-Win/QuickLook

Photoshop shows different colors and my gradients are ruined, all of this happened overnight. But everywhere else, the file preview's colors are correct. Do you know any reason? Is this related to the Pantone thing?
Why does the Quicklook app show the correct colors and photoshop doesn't?
