Performance Dapper is known for its high performance as it uses raw SQL queries and maps results directly to objects, which reduces the overhead of ORM frameworks.
Lightweight It is a micro ORM and thus does not add significant weight to the application. It only requires a single DLL, which is simple to integrate.
Flexibility Dapper provides the flexibility to write complex queries and take full advantage of SQL features, performing tasks that are cumbersome with full ORMs.
Easy Mapping Allows easy mapping of data from the database to C# objects, helping developers handle the conversion between the two seamlessly.
Open Source and Support Dapper is open-source and has a strong community support with regular updates and a wealth of resources available for learning and troubleshooting.
Possible disadvantages
Lack of Built-in Features As a micro ORM, Dapper lacks some of the advanced features present in full-featured ORMs like Entity Framework, such as change tracking and full LINQ support.
Manual SQL Queries Developers need to write SQL queries manually, which can increase the risk of SQL injection and bugs if not handled carefully.
No Automatic Migration Unlike some ORMs, Dapper does not offer automatic database migration capabilities, requiring developers to handle schema changes separately.
Limited Database Support While Dapper supports many popular databases, it may not support niche databases or specific features that are easily managed by other ORMs.

Overall verdict
ShellNewHandler is a niche, lightweight utility hosted on SourceForge designed to give users more control over the Windows 'New' context menu (the ShellNew menu). It can be considered good for its specific narrow use case, but it is an older, minimally maintained tool that may not suit all users, especially those on modern Windows versions.
Why this product is good
Provides direct control over customizing the Windows right-click 'New' menu, allowing users to add or remove file type entries
Lightweight and free, without bundled bloatware typical of some other free utilities
Simple and focused in scope, making it easy to understand for its specific purpose
Open distribution via SourceForge allows transparency and no-cost access
Recommended for
Power users who want to declutter or customize the Windows New context menu
IT administrators managing standardized desktop environments across multiple machines
Users comfortable with older utility-style tools and Windows registry-related tweaks
Not recommended for casual users seeking modern, actively supported software with regular updates

Guys, where do you shop for reasonably priced everyday office shoes?
I've also heard good things about Thursday but never pulled the trigger. I tend to like Timberland boots, and while they aren't the most long-lasting, they are comfortable and can be had for very cheap if you wait for sales. I also have...

I recently got libreoffice, but now the new option in right click looks like a mess. Can someone help me get rid of them please?
Use Shell New Handler. Run the portable app and simply untick the items you don't want to appear in your new context menu.

This menu should be easy to add/remove programs to... Who is really creating Access Databases from this menu often enough to keep it here? (Not me!) Is there an easy way to edit this?
I've always used ShellNewHandler for this. It's a really simple portable utility that allows you to remove most of the items from that menu. Tested it out on Windows 11 and it's still compatible.
