Dev preview v0.103.3151.0

This development preview adds an Awake lock-screen option, redesigns Command Palette's CPU card, and fixes shortcut conflict detection and Mouse Without Borders IP mappings, alongside build and test updates since v0.103.3131.

Installer Hashes

Highlights

• Awake: Choose whether the Keep screen on request remains active while Windows is locked.
• Command Palette: The redesigned Performance Monitor CPU card shows a 60-second history, per-processor utilization, top processes and system details.
• Command Palette: Extension-supplied Adaptive Cards can render native vertical, horizontal and stacked bar charts.
• Command Palette: Performance cards show their first sample immediately, and CPU base-speed reporting better handles multi-cluster processors.
• General: Removed a false system-shortcut conflict warning for Win+Shift+C on Windows 11.
• Mouse Without Borders: Administrator-defined IP mappings now work without user-defined rules.

Awake

• Added Allow screen to turn off while locked in Settings and the tray menu. Turn it off to keep the Keep screen on request active while Windows is locked; the previous behavior remains the default. On Modern Standby systems, Windows may still turn off the display, in #51880 by @lorinc-ambrozy-work and @Meister1977.

Command Palette

• Added native vertical, horizontal and stacked horizontal bar charts for Adaptive Cards supplied by extensions, in #51210.
• Redesigned the Performance Monitor CPU card with a 60-second history, per-logical-processor utilization, the five busiest processes and system details. Performance cards now show their first sample immediately, and CPU base-speed reporting better handles multi-cluster processors, in #51211.

General

• Stopped reporting a false Windows system-shortcut conflict for Win+Shift+C on Windows 11, in #51236 by @linghengqian.

Mouse Without Borders

• Applied administrator-defined IP mapping rules even when the user has no mapping rules or user mappings are disabled by policy, in #51127 by @rarepops.

Development

• Corrected single-project build solution-directory resolution so intermediate outputs match solution builds and are not accidentally included in context-menu packages, in #51321.
• Installed the required .NET SDK and signing runtime explicitly in the SDK build job, in #52072.
• Updated Windows App SDK packages to version 2.6.5 and removed an unused dependency from the Command Palette extension template, in #52060.
• Updated File Explorer thumbnail UI tests to recognize current initialization logs and check generation failures after visual captures, in #52071.
• Migrated twelve common C++ projects from packages.config to centrally versioned PackageReference dependencies, in #51324.
• Updated CsWinRT to 2.3.1 and the Windows SDK .NET reference pack to 10.0.26100.87, with corresponding collection-projection compatibility fixes, in #51654.
• Moved MSVC C++ code analysis into a parallel CI job to shorten the main build path, in #51695.
