研究方向
Investigate how the Command Palette's app enumeration handles portable executables. Check if the indexing logic in the Command Palette module (likely under src/modules/CommandPalette) skips files without installation metadata. Look for any filtering that might exclude non installed .exe files from indexed locations. Review recent changes or related issues in the repository for clues.
