Subject: [PATCH] Remove quickstart guide references to address legal concerns

- Removed "Open Quickstart Guide" menu item and associated functions
- Replaced ROM loading error popup containing quickstart guide links
  with a neutral disclaimer stating the software is provided as-is
  without warranty or support
- This change helps minimize legal liability by avoiding
  specific instructional content while directing users to community
  resources for assistance
