If only there were a power toy to make it so that I can drag a file onto an app on the Win11 task bar to open it with that app, then I could actually switch to Win11. Until then, Power Toys makes every day with Win10 a little bit better.
That was added to base Windows 11 3 years ago

Huh?!? How? It was removed and looks like not working right now
Before that update the feature was not implemented, because Windows 11 uses the taskbar written for Windows 10x

PowerToys is one of the best things about Windows: useful, free, and regularly updated. It was great to see it come back in 2019.
That said, PowerToys was the first thing I installed on the new laptop.

I found OpenHashTab to be a good tool for this in the meantime: https://github.com/namazso/OpenHashTab
Why not just include in the OS?
"power" as in Power-user... A lot of power user tools aren't typically installed in consumer oriented OSes, see MacOS and Windows. Beyond this, PowerToys can take third party contributions and evolve far faster/easier than Windows official release software.
Powertoys has had some weird bugs over the years: https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/issues/410 I can't find it now, but I think it also used to crash outlook if you put mailto: links in emails.
