Possible disadvantages

• Limited Single-Player Experience

• Incomplete Game Ports
  Some features from the original games, particularly those related to full storyline campaigns, have not been completely implemented in OpenRA.
• Steep Learning Curve
  For new players, the gameplay, which is based on classic RTS mechanics, may be difficult to master and may require a significant time investment to become proficient.
• Dependent on Community Activity
  The longevity of the game relies heavily on community support and interest, which can fluctuate and potentially limit ongoing development and content availability.
• Network Performance Issues

• 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
