Windows 11 users have long wanted the ability to automatically switch between light and dark mode without manually changing settings. With the latest update, Microsoft PowerToys is finally adding this much-requested feature along with improved tools for managing keyboard shortcuts. These upgrades make Windows 11 more customizable, user-friendly, and closer to matching features already common in mobile devices.
The upcoming PowerToys module introduces a scheduler that lets users set when Windows 11 should switch between light and dark mode. You’ll be able to customize it based on specific times or even align it with sunrise and sunset. This feature has been available on iOS and Android for years, and now Windows 11 users can enjoy a more seamless visual experience without constant manual adjustments.
Alongside theme scheduling, PowerToys version 0.94 also introduces a tool for handling keyboard shortcut conflicts. With so many utilities available, it’s easy to assign shortcuts that overlap. The new shortcut conflicts feature highlights these overlaps in red, allowing you to quickly reassign them. This makes PowerToys more efficient and ensures your favorite shortcuts always work as intended.
Automatic light and dark mode scheduling and improved shortcut management may sound like small updates, but they improve daily usability for Windows 11 power users. By reducing repetitive manual tasks and avoiding shortcut frustrations, Microsoft is making the overall Windows experience smoother, smarter, and more modern.
Microsoft has confirmed that more improvements are on the way, including a redesigned Keyboard Manager UI and other utilities to enhance productivity. With frequent updates, PowerToys continues to evolve into a must-have companion for anyone who wants more control and efficiency in Windows 11.
