PowerToys is open source, so you know feel free to see if you can figure out what's going on and throw it in the issues? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

vlord6757d@iSwimInTheC Yes, you're propbably right. I just don't get why it indexes my files, as it is a bunch of "toys" and I only use 4 of its features where none of them would need indexing or benefit of it in any way

lorentz1494057d@vlord maybe it leaks, maybe it got deadlocked. Holding a lock on user files indefinitely is clearly not intentional.

Windows PowerToys randomly locked an image on my computer and I was not able to delete it.
I closed PowerToys and was able to delete the image.
But why was the file locked by Power"Toys" in the first place? Hint: I did not use any tool on this image whatsoever, I just randomly noted it was locked. Wtf are all these programs doing in my private files without my knowledge? >:(
