Xbox Achievements VS ShellNewHandler

• Enhanced Gaming Experience
  Xbox Achievements add an extra layer to games, offering players additional challenges and goals beyond just completing the main storyline. This can increase the longevity and enjoyment of games.
• Increased Replay Value
  Achievements encourage players to replay games to unlock all achievements, providing more value and entertainment from a single title.
• Competitive Element
  Achievements can introduce a competitive aspect, as players strive to compare or surpass their friends' achievement scores, adding a social element to gaming.
• Motivation and Satisfaction
  Successfully unlocking an achievement can be motivating and satisfying, providing players with a sense of accomplishment and progression.
• Community Engagement
  Achievements often foster a sense of community among players who share tips and strategies, further enhancing the social side of gaming.

Possible disadvantages

• Gameplay Pressure
  Some players might feel pressured to achieve 100% completion, which can turn gaming into a less enjoyable experience as it can feel like a task rather than a leisure activity.
• Artificial Difficulty
  Certain achievements can be very difficult or time-consuming to obtain, which might require excessive hours or highly skilled gameplay, potentially frustrating some players.
• Misalignment with Game Enjoyment
  Focusing too much on achievements might detract from the enjoyment of the game itself, as players might become fixated on completing specific tasks rather than immersing themselves in the game's story and environment.
• Potential for Grind
  Many achievements require repetitive or grind-heavy tasks, which can become tedious and lessen the enjoyment of the game.
• Exclusivity and Accessibility
  Some achievements may be locked behind downloadable content (DLC), requiring additional purchases, which can be frustrating for players who want to complete a game without spending extra money.

• A good site with guides?

  I use Xbox Achievements. It helps most of the time. Source: almost 4 years ago

• Two recent simulation completions

  Xboxachievements.com. I've been using them for years, good guides and community although it's dwindled these days. Still take part in their yearly Gamerscore League for fun. Source: about 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
