UI Layout Scaling (increase of utilities) Concerns

[logar16]

Description of the new feature / enhancement

I'd recommend you find some logical way to group the utilities so we don't have to scroll through 200 of them in a year or two as they continue to be added. I love that there are so many things, but worry this won't scale well. And maybe you'll need to make it like installing extensions. You can reference abilities exist but need to be installed separately, thus I don't have to get functionality for a bunch of things I'm not using (I don't imagine these are big, space-hungry utilities right now, so not a big deal).

Scenario when this would be used?

When using the PowerToys interface

Supporting information

Example:

• VS Code extensions (onload just the functionality you want, but have a "store" to go in and choose more from).

Hello and thanks for your message. I see your point about the Navigation getting crowded with so many tool. It's something that has been coined in #12388. Making individual tools as plug-ins is very complicated and discussed in #3170.

And if you do so, please make the PowerToys window itself scrollable with the middle mouse button, like in every other modern window that exists in Windows. Going to the right side of the area that one likes to browse is pretty old-school.
Thanks
