### File Explorer add-ons

#### Configure enabled state for individual add-ons

Supported on PowerToys 0.83.0 or later, depending on the add-on.

For each File Explorer add-on, there's a "Configure enabled state" policy, which forces an enabled state for the add-on.

- If you enable this setting, the add-on will be always enabled and the user won't be able to disable it.
- If you disable this setting, the add-on will be always disabled and the user won't be able to enable it.
- If you don't configure this setting, users are able to enable or disable the add-on.

The policy "File Explorer add-ons: Configure enabled state" will override this policy.

> PDF file preview: There have been reports of incompatibility between the PDF Preview Handler and Outlook.
