Steps to reproduce

Repro Steps:

  1. Open power toys.
  2. Now navigate to the home section and select.
  3. Now turn on narrator using CTRL + Win + Enter.
  4. Now navigate to the Shortcut conflicts button.
  5. Observe the narrator's announcement.

✔️ Expected Behavior

The button should have an accessible name — either via a visible label, aria-label, or aria-labelledby — so that assistive technology users understand its purpose.

❌ Actual Behavior

The "Shortcut Conflicts" button has no accessible name defined. Screen readers announce it as “button”.

Additional Information

User Impact:
Users who rely on screen readers cannot determine the function of the button, making it inaccessible. This prevents users from resolving or viewing shortcut conflicts, which could impact usability and task completion.
