Microsoft PowerToys version

0.69.0

Installation method

GitHub

Running as admin

No

Area(s) with issue?

Awake

Steps to reproduce

I was enabling the Awake feature, which I have used before.. But I accidentally selected the 4th option. PowerToys just instantly crashed. And it will crash every time I load the PowerToys Settings, and then select the Awake option panel on the left.

I can't tell you what the 4th option is, because it crashes on me now, and the documentation only lists 3 options:

  1. Keep using the selected power plan
  2. Keep awake indefinitely
  3. Keep awake temporarily

I believe it is a new option, as I don't remember seeing it before, so it was the 4th option that I selected. Now I can't even get to that screen to undo that change.

I attached the event log application error. (I had to rename *.xml to *.xml.txt as it would not accept the upload.)
PowerToys-application-event-error.xml.txt

✔️ Expected Behavior

I did not mean to select the 4th option, but either way, I did not expect PowerToys to crash. And then crash every time I went back to try to undo that change.

❌ Actual Behavior

PowerToys.Settings.exe abruptly crashes.

I have not yet uninstalled and reinstalled, as I'd hate to redo all my settings over again. If anyone in the short term has a registry key location or something along that line to undo that change for the short term, I would really appreciate that. (I can't seem to find it via searching.)

Was scratching my head on this one, since I couldn't repro at all.
Since this might have something to do with the time control, I changed my timezone to PST and now I can repro.
This seems to be caused by the value for the TimeOffset being initialized at the minimum and the UI somehow wanting to set it back a few hours to show it in Settings?
Anyway, now I can repro and will work on a fix.
