This powertoy would support conversion between common media types, ideally available as an option in the context menu when right-clicking a media file.
Should be able to convert images between jpg, png, gif, and webp
Should be able to convert videos between mp4, mov, gif, webm
Should be able to convert audio between mp3, wav, etc
Ideally, should also support operations such as mp4 -> mp3 (removing video and leaving only audio) and mp3 -> mp4 (preserving audio as expected, but also including blank black video)
As a stretch goal, operations which require a bit more data transformation (such as conversions to/from pdf) may also be worth considering.
Scenario when this would be used?
It's not uncommon for applications to expect media to be of a certain file type and be unable to process it otherwise. In cases such as this, a user may have to open a commandline tool such as FFMPEG or a heavier application such as Photoshop, either option being pretty overkill for a simple file conversion. Further, file downloads may be in unexpected formats (such as Telegram stickers and "gifs" downloading as WEBP and MP4 respectively), meaning the user must manually convert them to more typical formats.
