Hello,

When searching for applications/content in the search bar, it would be great to filter with a character a contextual search.

For instance

  1. ALT-SPACE opens the Run windows
    2." !edge" will launch the running Edge (if many instances, then the list is displayed)

WindowWalker included does not, at least for me, really answer that

Keep up anyway the good work - I love PowerToys!
