説明

Description of the new feature / enhancement

I found a text file containing app synonyms, and in there lies some explanation as to why and how the search feature in Windows 10 lists search results as it does when searching for applications, apps, and settings.

It lists all common misspellings of some common applications. For instance, did you know that you can do a search for “exell” and it will display “Excel 2016” in the search results? You can also type “npo” to find “Notepad“, or type “c prompt” that will list “command prompt”, or “exx” that will find “Internet Explorer” or if you search for “ie” and it will list “Edge”.

The file where all these synonyms are gathered is named appssynonyms.txt and is located in

%LocalAppData%\Packages\Microsoft.Windows.Search_cw5n1h2txyewy\LocalState\ConstraintIndex\Input_{7c5356ce-e01e-44c3-8f22-0ba9ef94aa3a}\

I want this feature for PowerToys Run.

Scenario when this would be used?

Play Store -> Microsoft Store image image
