Analysis

An editorial look at what each product does well and who it suits.

ShellNewHandler
UrbanPay

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

Overall verdict

  • I don't have verified, specific information about a product or service called 'UrbanPay' at urbanpayx.com, so I can't confirm its legitimacy, features, or quality. Before using this service, I'd strongly recommend conducting independent research to verify its legitimacy and suitability.

Why this product is good

  • I have no reliable data on this specific domain or company to assess its offerings
  • Financial services require careful vetting for security, licensing, and regulatory compliance
  • There are many similarly-named payment services, so confirming you have the correct and legitimate site is essential

Recommended for

  • Anyone considering this service should first verify business registration, licensing, and regulatory compliance in their jurisdiction
  • Check independent reviews on trusted platforms like Trustpilot, BBB, or industry forums
  • Confirm security certifications (PCI DSS compliance) if it's a payment processing service
  • Contact the company directly and verify contact information, physical address, and customer support responsiveness
  • Consult financial advisors or read user testimonials from verified sources before committing funds or sensitive data

  • 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
