# PowerToys just got 28% smaller and absorbed three separate apps I used to install

**[XDA Developers](https://daily.dev/sources/xda-developers)** · 5 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Microsoft PowerToys version 0.100 brings a 28% smaller installer (272MB down from 376MB) and several new tools that replace previously separate apps. Power Display (added in v0.99) handles external monitor brightness and contrast via DDC, replacing tools like Twinkle Tray. ZoomIt now supports webcam overlays and multi-clip stitching with transitions, reducing the need for OBS or video editors. Grab and Move lets users drag or resize windows by holding a modifier key and clicking anywhere on the window, replacing unsupported tools like AltDrag. Command Palette also gained an Extension Gallery for easier extension browsing and installation.
