Ulauncher, alternative Linux à PowerToys Run
Mis à jour le
Notre avis
Ulauncher is a solid replacement for PowerToys Run on Linux. It offers a keyboard‑only launcher with instant fuzzy search, hotkey configuration, and the ability to launch applications, open directories, and run custom scripts. Users who need a lightweight, extensible launcher that integrates with their desktop environment will find it suitable. Those who rely heavily on PowerToys Run’s calculation engine or Windows‑specific features may need to adapt, but for most everyday tasks Ulauncher covers the core functionality.

Ouvrir vos fichiers PowerToys Run
PowerToys Run stores its configuration in a JSON file under %APPDATA%\Microsoft\PowerToys\settings.json. Ulauncher uses a separate configuration file (~/.config/ulauncher/settings.json). There is no direct import/export path between the two; manual re‑creation of hotkeys and custom commands is necessary.

Installer Ulauncher sous Linux
sudo dnf install ulauncherQuestions fréquentes
Does Ulauncher support calculations like PowerToys Run?
Ulauncher itself does not have a built‑in calculator. You can add a custom command that runs a calculator program (e.g., bc or xcalc) or use a Python extension to evaluate expressions.
Can I use Ulauncher to open Windows files from a dual‑boot setup?
Yes, as long as the files are accessible from Linux (e.g., on a shared NTFS partition). Ulauncher can launch any executable or open a directory, so you can point it to the Windows installation.
Is Ulauncher available on all major Linux distributions?
Ulauncher is available in the official repositories of Fedora, Debian, Ubuntu, Arch, and others, and can also be installed via Snap or Flatpak.
