Pepermint 9. Using Software Manager I have disabled a superfluous Google Chrome Beta but it still appears in Menu although it can no longer be accessed. How to I get rid of it from Menu?

What’s the output from:
ls /usr/share/applications | grep chrome
and
ls ~/.local/share/applications | grep chrome
No response from the first code.
Second code:chrome-aohghmighlieiainnegkcijnfilokake-Default.desktop
chrome-apdfllckaahabafndbhieahigkjlhalf-Default.desktop
chrome-blpcfgokakmgnkcojhhkbfbldkacnbeo-Default.desktop
chrome-pjkljhegncpnkpknbcohdijeoejaedia-Default.desktop
google-chrome-beta.desktop
googlechromebeta.desktop
google-chrome.desktop
googlechrome.desktop
Run:
rm -v ~/.local/share/applications/google-chrome-beta.desktop
and
rm -v ~/.local/share/applications/googlechromebeta.desktop
is it gone from the menu now ?
First:- removed ‘/home/geoffrey/.local/share/applications/google-chrome-beta.desktop’
Second:- removed '/home/geoffrey/.local/share/applications/googlechromebeta.desktop
Yes. Thank you. Is there no other way of doing this sort of thing other than getting on the Forum?
Yes, the menu editor.
Right-click the “Menu” button, and select “Edit Applications” … find the application on the left, then on the right select “Hide in the menu”.
Thanks for your help.
