A recent update to PowerToys has Windows 10 and 11 users buzzing with anticipation. While the latest improvements have been impressive, a new AI-powered feature is on the horizon that promises to give users even more control over their system calendar.
The Date and Time Plugin
The upcoming Date and Time plugin, revealed on PowerToy’s GitHub repository, is set to revolutionize how Windows users interact with their calendars. This new module will allow users to customize calendar settings, including the first week rule and the first day of the week rule.
Although it may not sound as flashy as some of the previous PowerToys updates, the Date and Time module will be a game-changer for users looking to tailor their calendar experience. With the ability to select which week qualifies as the first of the year and which day of the week is considered the first, PowerToys is putting the power back in the hands of the user.
Global Impact
One user shared a scenario where the new module would be particularly useful, highlighting the challenges of navigating different cultural calendar settings. This new feature promises to make these adjustments seamless and intuitive for users around the world.
Stay Tuned
For those eager to try out the new Date and Time module, keep an eye on GitHub for updates on its development progress. While the release may still be a way off, the wait will undoubtedly be worth it for Windows users looking to enhance their calendar experience.
PowerToys is available for free on the Microsoft Store for Windows 10 and 11 users. Alternatively, you can download it from GitHub or use the “winget install powertoys” command to get your hands on this exciting utility.
