Windows Powertoys

As a former Windows user, I used to rely heavily on the PowerToys utility—especially the "Window Pin to Top" feature. Now that I’m on Zorin OS, I really miss it. Is there any way to get that functionality back?

Moved Your Thread to General Help because it is a Help Request.

What exactly do that Program? Can You describe it? Maybe there is an Alternative for Linux.

There is a gnome extension that look like it has this function but it is not available for the gnome version Zorin 17 uses. You have to wait until Zorin 18 will be released this year then you can use it.

There is also an experimental project that tries to put Windows power toys into Linux but I don't know how developed it is.

At many apps you can do this:

  1. Open the app you want to pin on top of the screen.
  2. Right-click on the app’s title bar and select "Always on Top" from the menu options.

You can also set a shortcut for this function in dconf:
