Remove menu entries in XFCE on Qubes

[b...@students.ptcollege.edu]

I'm trying to remove an entry in the applications menu for fedora 23 that's still there from when I updated to 24. How can I do this?

I did that months ago. It doesn't work. Fedora 23 is still in the XFCE Applications menu.

I think its alt f3 to get the editing mode for start menu.

Did you try including "*" at the end of fedora23? It's not there in your pic.

rm ~/.local/share/applications/fedora23*

[Unman]

Yes, have you actually looked in that folder to see what's there?
Also, as raaahelps points put you can directly edit the menu contents
- if you "hide" all the entries from a menu then the menu entry will
itself also disappear from the applications menu.

This works to hide it but hidden is still there in a sense. Seems a little goofy that there's no way to do this, no?
I understand Qubes has its parts separate intentionally but I think there's a problem in some places, like this one; where you aren't able to do something as simple as remove a menu entry.
Just my 2c if there really is no way to do this properly.

My mistake, it was in here > ~/.local/share/applications/
I got rid of it by doing rm fedora-23*
Thanks for the help.
