[rocketmouse@archlinux ~]$ grep Exec /usr/share/applications/gparted.desktop
Exec=/usr/bin/gparted_polkit %f

But software as e.g. menulibre and cinnamon-menu-editor do
show /usr/sbin/gparted %f, so assumed I would use xfce4-appfinder to
launch gparted on JWM, it would launch /usr/sbin/gparted %f and
_not_ /usr/bin/gparted_polkit %f. I kept the default, didn't edit this
entry, it definitively is /usr/sbin/gparted %f . IOW the menu's default
might be /usr/bin/gparted_polkit %f for the DE you're using, but for
e.g. Xfce4 users (xfce4-popup-applicationsmenu and
xfce4-popup-whiskermenu) it is /usr/sbin/gparted %f.
