Whisker menu has two MX Tools categories (MX21.3)

#1 Post by planetree »

Just noticed that my 21.3 has two MX Tools items in the Whisker menu list, with their contents identical. I don't think it's anything I've done, and I don't know how long it has been like that, so maybe everyone on 21.3 has this?

Anyway, I can't seem to find a way to edit the Whisker menu. I tried MenuLibre but that only lists one MX Tools anyway.

It's not a big deal, but I mention just in case this is the way it's been put out.

Ah right, getting rid of mx-tools.menu has done the trick.

Amazed I never noticed the two items before.

Thanks.
