### Requirements
- Windows 11 or Windows 10 v1903 (18362) or newer.
- Windows 11 or Windows 10 v2004 (19041) or newer.
- Our installer will install the following items:
- [.NET 6.0.5 Desktop Runtime](https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download/dotnet/6.0#runtime-desktop-6.0.5) or a newer 6.0.x runtime.
- [Microsoft Edge WebView2 Runtime](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=2124703) bootstrapper. This will install the latest version.
- [.NET 6.0.6 Desktop Runtime](https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download/dotnet/6.0#runtime-desktop-6.0.6) or a newer 6.0.x runtime.
- [Microsoft Edge WebView2 Runtime](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=2124703) bootstrapper. This will install the latest version.

### Via GitHub with EXE [Recommended]
[Microsoft PowerToys GitHub releases page][github-release-link], click on `Assets` at the bottom to show the files available in the release. Please use the appropriate the PowerToys installer that matches your machine's architecture. For most people, it is `x64`.
- **For x64 processors (most common):** click on `PowerToysSetup-0.59.1-x64.exe`
- **For ARM64 processors:** `PowerToysSetup-0.59.1-arm64.exe`
- **For x64 processors (most common):** click on `PowerToysSetup-0.60.0-x64.exe`
- **For ARM64 processors:** `PowerToysSetup-0.60.0-arm64.exe`
This is our preferred method.

### 0.59 - May 2022 Update
### 0.60 - June 2022 Update
In this release, we focused on wrapping up building for native ARM64 and releasing the first experimental build. Below are some of the highlights!
In this release, we focused heavily on stability and improvements. Below are some of the highlights!
**Highlights**
- The work for running natively on ARM64 has been wrapped up and a build is released. Thanks [@snickler](https://github.com/snickler)!
- Power Rename now is running on WinUI 3.
- Keyboard Manager now allows up to 4 modifier keys for shortcuts and has received some quality fixes.
- Upgraded the Windows App SDK runtimes to 1.1.0, fixing an issue where Settings wouldn't start with UAC off and improving performance.
- The Windows App SDK runtime binaries are being shipped with PowerToys which should resolve the installations issues reported with WinAppSDK.
- PowerRename and Image Resizer now appear on the new Windows 11 context menu.
- There's a new PowerToys Run plugin for OneNote. Thanks [@palenshus](https://github.com/palenshus)!
- FancyZones uses a new zone identification with monitor Id to increase stability and avoid zone resets.
- AlwaysOnTop now uses rounded corners for highlighting rounded windows on Windows 11.
- Added settings to PowerToys Run to better control the query results order. Thanks [@jefflord](https://github.com/jefflord)!
### Known issues
- There are reports of users who are [unable to open the Settings window](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/issues/18015). This is being caused by incompatibilities with some applications (RTSS RivaTuner Statistics Server and MSI AfterBurner are known examples of this). If you're affected by this, please check the linked issue to verify if any of the presented solutions works for you.
- After installing PowerToys, [the new Windows 11 context menu entries for PowerRename and Image Resizer might not appear before a system restart](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/issues/19124). On some Windows 11 dev channel insider builds, the new context menu entries are not registering correctly and the classic context menu entries will be shown instead.
- There are reports of users who are [unable to open the Settings window](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/issues/18015).
