Gift Cards VS ShellNewHandler

• Convenience
  Gift cards offer a convenient way to give a gift without having to choose a specific item. They allow the recipient to select their own gift, which can save time and reduce the stress of finding the perfect present.
• Flexibility
  Gift cards are versatile and can be used at various stores, especially if they are prepaid Visa or Mastercard options. This provides recipients with more choices in how they can use their gift.
• Budget Control
  When giving a gift card, there is no risk of overspending since the value is predetermined. This helps both the giver and the recipient manage their budgets effectively.
• Safety
  Gift cards can be safer than cash as they can be tracked and sometimes cancelled if lost or stolen, particularly those associated with major payment networks.
• Easy to Mail
  Gift cards are easy to send through the mail, making them an excellent option for gifting to someone who lives far away without worrying about shipping bulky items.

Possible disadvantages

• Expiration and Fees
  Some gift cards may have expiration dates or fees that devalue the card over time, especially if not used promptly. This can be a disadvantage if the recipient forgets to use the card.
• Limited Use
  Store-specific gift cards limit recipients to shopping at particular retailers. If the recipient does not like or cannot access the store easily, the card may go unused.
• Potential to Lose Value
  Inflation or changing prices at retailers can lead to the gift card losing its effective purchasing power over time, resulting in the recipient getting less value.
• Lack of Personal Touch
  Some people may feel that gift cards are impersonal and lack the thoughtfulness associated with selecting a personalized gift that shows deeper consideration.
• Inconvenience of Remaining Balance
  Gift cards can often leave the recipient with a small remaining balance that can be inconvenient to spend, leading to unused funds that are difficult to redeem fully.

• 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. Source: about 4 years ago

• 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. Source: over 5 years ago
