Settings: enable/disable powertoys module improvement #183

Description

@enricogior

In the general settings, individual modules can be disabled, but that will not disable the module's settings page. Having one place to enable/disable a module and a different place to change its settings doesn't seem like the best UX.

A proposed alternative is to have the enable/disable switch on top of each module settings page, and gray out the module settings when disabled. It would also be nice to indicate that in the left panel so it would be easy to see which are the current enabled modules.

Another area of improvement would be the modules sort order in the settings left panel, possible options:

  • alphabetical
  • enabled first
  • user defined
