• I played What Remains of Edith Finch and the game is a solid 9.9/10 narrative game[Mild Spoilers, if you havent played it]

  Shortly after I played Edith, Epic had Gone Home for free. It was flat, empty, and fell flat. The construction of everything was all off. Almost like it was squished. Ceilings were varying heights. It was so weird and messed up. Source: almost 4 years ago

• 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
