There is a new bugfix release of PowerToys available. This release also includes an update to.NET 8.0.4 that addresses startup crashes on older CPUs. There were issues with the installation of DSC module folders, the Keyboard Manager Editor crashing when Visual C++ Redistributable was not installed, and the Text Extractor settings page not opening. These issues have been fixed.
