Users might find it safer (smaller hammer) to do the following:

Code: Select all

mv ~/.config/menus/applications-merged/mx-tools.menu .
This moves the file mx-tools.menu into the current working directory (would be the user's home directory if current working directory not changed after launching the terminal). This allows for the possibility of putting the file back into place in case of unintended consequences are found to happen.

The solution did work perfectly as already reported.

Even better.. leave it where it is, and rename it, adding _bak at the end ;)
