PowerToys v0.69.1 fixes new Registry Preview module and addresses other problems
Microsoft has issued a new patch release for PowerToys to fix a range of bugs in the suite of utilities.
The release of PowerToys v0.69.1 comes mere days after the last update which was rather more significant. Just a week ago we were treated to the arrival of a new module in the shape of Registry Preview, and this latest release fixes problems with this and other utilities.

This is by no means a major release, but Microsoft deemed the stability issues and bugs addressed to be large enough to warrant a new update. This time around we have no new modules, but there are new keyboard shortcuts in the most recent Registry Preview addition.
The changelog for PowerToys v0.69.1 is as follows:
- #25254 - Fixed an issue causing the Registry Preview window to adopt a size too big for the screen after opening a big file.
