I was getting the "shell:AppsFolder\Microsoft.CommandPalette_8wekyb3d8bbwe!App" promt every time I restarted windows and was able to fix it by disabling Command Palette and updating to the latest version update by going to Dashboard for power toys that usually appears on top of the "always on top" toggle selection option.

    Hi,

    I'm Sumit, here to help with your query on the Microsoft Q&A forums.

    Apologies for any inconvenience you are experiencing. I am happy to help you today.

    I was told they fixed this issue in version 0.91.

    Could you please do these steps:

    Press Windows+R, type appwiz.cpl, and press Enter. Locate Microsoft PowerToys in the list, right-click it, and select Uninstall. Follow the prompts to remove it completely. Go to the official PowerToys GitHub page: https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/releases Download the latest .exe installer. Run the installer and follow the on-screen instructions to reinstall.

    I look forward to your response and am eager to collaborate until we find a solution.
