Closes #4921.

Thanks to @GeezRvonFart for the request - the use case in the issue (hand-editing preset JSON per machine, and having to dig through the config files to find the right key) is exactly what this addresses.

What changed

Supported app, tweak, and feature entries now show their preset JSON key at the end of the hover tooltip:

Fast private browser

Preset key: WPFInstallbrave
  • New private helper Get-WinUtilEntryToolTip builds the string (description, blank line, Preset key: <key>).
  • Application entries use the helper in Initialize-InstallAppEntry.ps1.
  • Preset-applicable toggle-button and checkbox entries use it in Invoke-WPFUIElements.ps1; features share this renderer.
  • Application search also matches the preset key, so typing WPFInstallbrave finds Brave. The existing Tweaks/AppX search becomes key-aware through the tooltip text.
  • The Automation guide now explains how to discover keys through tooltips and search.

No JSON schema change, no XAML change, and no new UI elements.

Behaviour notes

  1. Only controls that can be applied safely from a preset advertise a preset key. Toggle switches, comboboxes, and package-manager radio buttons keep their plain description tooltips. Comboboxes and radio choices cannot be represented by the flat preset format, while imported WPFToggle* entries are not applied by either preset execution path.
  2. Entries with no description now have a tooltip where they previously had none: a key-only line with no leading blank lines.
  3. Short fragments match many entries on the Tweaks tab. The Tweaks/AppX search already matches tooltip text, so searching WPF matches every labeled tweak. Typing another character narrows it.

The application-search change is deliberate scope beyond the issue: without it, tweaks would be findable by key and applications would not.

The key is deliberately kept out of AutomationProperties.Name; adding it there would append it to every screen-reader announcement across roughly 300 controls. WPF exposes plain-string tooltips as UIA HelpText, so screen-reader users can still query it on demand.

Review feedback addressed

  • Kept combobox and package-manager radio tooltips free of misleading preset keys.
  • Removed preset-key labels from toggle switches because imported toggle selections are not executed.
  • Documented tooltip and search-based key discovery in the Automation guide.
  • Updated Find-AppsByNameOrDescription documentation for preset-key matching.
  • Added coverage for the application renderer and every supported renderer branch.
  • Synchronized the contributor branch with current main.

Testing

  • .\Compile.ps1 completed successfully.
  • Focused Pester suite: 41 passed, 0 failed (tooltip-key, search-filter, and ui-state).
  • Full Pester suite: 572 passed, 0 failed.
  • Full Script Analyzer run completed with no new warnings in the PR diff; remaining findings are the repository's accepted baseline conventions.
  • Local Codex review loop completed with no actionable findings.
  • The contributor's compiled-build manual pass covered app entries, tweak/feature controls, and key-based search; the final unsupported-control exclusions are protected by regression tests.

📝 Walkthrough

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • App searches now match preset keys in addition to names, descriptions, and tags.
    • Tooltips for configurable options now include the associated preset key.
    • Entries without descriptions display only their preset key.
  • Documentation

    • Expanded preset-key discovery guidance to cover AppX entries and tab-specific search behavior.
    • Clarified that feature keys are available through tooltips.
  • Tests

    • Added coverage for preset-key searches and tooltip formatting across supported controls.

Walkthrough

The change adds preset keys to supported UI entry tooltips and enables application searches by tag. Pester tests cover tooltip formatting, renderer coverage, preset import round-tripping, and tag-based filtering. Documentation describes preset-key discovery.

Get-WinUtilEntryToolTip appends preset keys or returns keys without descriptions. Supported UI entries use the helper. Tests validate formatting, control coverage, and preset import round-tripping. Documentation describes key discovery.

Application tag search

Application filtering now matches application tags. Tests verify matching visibility, nonmatching collapse, and category visibility.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to a993b

This PR adds preset-key information to supported tooltips and search, but toggle selections remain a merge-readiness concern because importable WPFToggle configurations may still be undiscoverable; the supported behavior should be reconciled before merging.

Comment thread functions/public/Invoke-WPFUIElements.ps1 Outdated
Comboboxes and package-manager radio buttons cannot appear in a preset
file. Update-WinUtilSelections routes a flat list of keys by the
WPFInstall/WPFTweaks/WPFToggle/WPFFeature/WPFAppx prefixes, so a preset
can carry neither a combobox selected value nor a radio group choice;
WingetRadioButton and ChocoRadioButton do not even carry a WPF prefix.
Advertising those control names as preset keys invited users to add keys
that fall through the switch and abort the whole import.

Revert the combobox label and radio button tooltips to the plain
description, and add tests that fail if the key is reattached to a
control the preset importer cannot accept.

Cover the application renderer in this test.

Line 26 loads only appnavigation, tweaks, feature, and appx. The changed application path is Initialize-InstallAppEntry.ps1, which sets the tooltip at Line 22. Add focused coverage for that renderer, or state that this test covers only Invoke-WPFUIElements, so application tooltip regressions cannot pass unnoticed.
