Analysis

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

ShellNewHandler
VideoBro

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

Questions & Answers

As answered by people managing ShellNewHandler and VideoBro.

What makes your product unique?

VideoBro's answer:

VideoBro works like one camcorder that several people are holding. Everyone who was there films into the same tape from their own iPhone, at the same time, and Develop turns all of it into one finished film, in the order it happened.

Instead of chasing clips out of everyone's camera rolls after the fact, the film comes together while the moment is still happening, and you end up with a longer, multi-perspective home movie rather than a pile of separate files.

Why should a person choose your product over its competitors?

VideoBro's answer:

Most ways of gathering video from several people are built around sending files after the event, or around a one-off montage. VideoBro solves the collection problem first:

  • Up to 8 people add clips to one tape from their own phones, while it's happening
  • Invitees can film without creating an account
  • Editing stays simple: swipe to remove a clip, press and hold to trim
  • Develop combines everything into one finished film, made in the cloud
  • Finished films live in your Tape Cabinet and are shared privately by unlisted link

It's free on iPhone with 2 GB of storage included, and no trial or card required.

How would you describe the primary audience of your product?

VideoBro's answer:

Friends and families who want to keep the moments they share: trips and long weekends, weddings, birthdays and parties, kids' sports seasons, everyday family life, and home movies for grandparents.

It's for people making videos for themselves and the people they love, rather than for an audience of strangers.

What's the story behind your product?

VideoBro's answer:

VideoBro was created by brothers Drew and Doug Olsen.

We film more than ever and watch almost none of it. What made family camcorder tapes worth watching was never the picture quality; it was that a tape was finite, shared and finished. Editing has gotten easier for decades, but getting everyone's footage into one place never did.

So VideoBro keeps the structure of the tape rather than just its look: a tape holds up to two hours from up to eight people, and Develop turns it into one film you'll actually sit down and watch.

  • 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
