How do I remove items from this list, especially the

Just a bit of info. If you right click on one of the list of applications you'd see
"Remove Launcher" grayed out.
That is because the files being referenced are *desktop files in /usr/share/applications.
Some may seem to be duplicates but really are not. The Name in the *desktop file is
duplicated but the exec in the file is not.
An example of this is org.freedesktop.IBus.Panel.Emojier.desktop and
org.freedesktop.IBus.Panel.Extension.Gtk3.desktop.
Both have Name=Emoji Choice but one has
Exec=/usr/libexec/ibus-extension-gtk3
and the other
Exec=ibus emoji
The *desktop files are placed there when applications are installed.
dnf whatprovides /usr/share/applications/org.freedesktop.IBus.Panel.Emojier.desktop
shows it is provided by the ibus package as is
dnf whatprovides /usr/share/applications/org.freedesktop.IBus.Panel.Extension.Gtk3.desktop
I am talking about from within Krusader and thunar. If I right
click on a file in krusader, then left click on Open With, I get
a list of possible programs to open the file with. If I right
click on anything in the list, it is the same as left clicking
and the file opens in that program
