MicrosoftPowerToys
PowerToys is the tool you need for this video, because Command Palette lives inside it. I use it as a Windows Search replacement since it’s fast, extensible, and you can even customize the look and add extensions like a dark mode toggle.
Pros
- +Command Palette is fast and finds apps/files instantly
- +Extensible with built-in modules and extra extensions
- +Customization options like accent color or background image
Cons
- -Best experience requires running PowerToys as administrator
- -Needs initial setup and shortcut configuration
