Description

Summary of the new feature/enhancement

Can we please have a Windows sound event which can be set with an individual sound file for an accoustic confirmation of a snapped in window?

Proposed technical implementation details (optional)

Add a new category in the following Sound dialog, for instance "PowerToys FancyZones" and add a new event "Window snap in complete", which will be triggered when the window is snapped in a new zone.
