TmpDisk VS ShellNewHandler

• Performance
  TmpDisk creates temporary disks in memory, providing faster read/write speeds compared to traditional disk storage.
• Ease of Use
  The tool is straightforward to set up and use, allowing users to quickly create and manage temporary storage spaces without dealing with complex configurations.
• Resource Efficiency
  By using existing system memory, TmpDisk avoids unnecessary disk writes, preserving the lifespan of SSDs and other storage media.
• Temporary Nature
  Disks created with TmpDisk are ephemeral, automatically cleaning up when no longer needed, which is ideal for temporary workloads or testing.
• Cross-Platform
  TmpDisk is designed to work on multiple operating systems, broadening its usability across different environments.

Possible disadvantages

• Volatility
  Since data is stored in volatile memory, any system reboot or crash will result in data loss, making it unsuitable for persistent storage needs.
• Memory Usage
  Using TmpDisk can reduce the available RAM for other applications, potentially impacting system performance if not managed properly.
• Limited Capacity
  The size of TmpDisk is inherently limited by the available system memory, which may be insufficient for large-scale data storage requirements.
• Security Concerns
  Storing sensitive data in memory can pose security risks, as it may be more easily accessible to unauthorized processes before it's cleared.
• Not for Long-Term Use
  Due to its temporary and non-persistent nature, TmpDisk is not suitable for long-term storage needs.

• 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
