Frequently asked questions
How do I back up Wintoys?
Back up the package folder for the app with it closed. Family name varies by version, so match by prefix. Tweaks themselves live in system keys outside the app.
Fixed INI path?
MSIX packaging forces per-user package stores with no fixed INI path. Tweaks write to system hives, not app config. List the pattern, not a static file.
