Pinned Modules for Quick Access

[rishabdesai]

Description of the new feature / enhancement

It would be extremely helpful to have a "Pinned Modules" section within PowerToys, allowing users to easily access their most frequently used modules (both enabled and disabled).

Scenario when this would be used?

For example, I typically use 4-5 modules at a time, and when one of them stops functioning as expected, I need to toggle it. However, once I disable the module, it moves to the "Disabled" section, which can be cumbersome to navigate since it's mixed with other modules. By adding the ability to pin specific modules, I can keep these modules easily accessible and visible for quick toggling when needed.

Additionally, having pinned modules reflected in the Windows system tray for easy access would further improve the workflow and usability.

Thank you for considering this feature!
