How remove voice from menu
« on: April 09, 2012, 07:33:07 AM »
How to remove a voice from LXDE Main Menu?
I have a voice (in Main menu/Internet) that was the teamviewer6 icon. I have not more this package (I have teamviewer7, now) and I have (in Main Menu, the teamviewer7 icon too. But... I have also the teamviewer6 icon... without any teamviewer6 package, of course.
Which way, for me, to remove yte teamviewer6 icon from LXDE Main Menu? (the command: "update-menus -v" has no make change at all).
Thank you in advance, people!  :)

Did you have this starter in /home/YOU./config/share/applications ?

Remove it there..., else open a terminal and try as root pcmanfm /usr/share/applications and search for it, and remove it.

I don't have any /home/username/.config/share/applications
I have, instead:
/home/username/.local/share/applications
... but in that folder I see the file to be removed.
I had removed it and the teamviewer6 voice in my Main Menu, suddenly, disappear.
Thank you very much, Leiche. Problem solved, thank you!  :)

Strange things happens, in these times...  ???
I have reboot my System and, when I go on desktop, I see the teamviewer6 voice is into LXDE Main Menu once more...
I am going into the /home/username/.local/share/applications to remove teamviewer6 voice, but... there is any teamviewer6 voice (there is the mimeapps.list only, not other files)...
Have you any other way to remove the "teamviewer6" voice fron the LXDE Main Menu?
That voice is into the Internet sub-menu and I have NOT teamviewer6 installed on my System (I have teamviewer7, of course, and there is also the teamviewer7 voice on my Main Menu (just unde the teamviewer6 voice).
Thank you very much for you help!  :)

Solved! Solved! Solved! Solved!  :D
I was very very stupid, my eyes was blind...
There is a program (whit graphical interface) to edit and change the LXDE Main Menu!
It is the "Main Menu Editor"!
To see it: Main Menu/Other programs/Configuration/Main Menu Editor

PCLinuxOS is really the best! :)
