[SOLVED] How to refresh Applications list in gnome 3 ( shell )

Hi

During these days I've uninstalled some app from my computer. But now I still see some of these app's icons in my "Applications" gnome shell tab: they are dead links; clicking on them shows a "x: command not found" popup message.

I've unsuccessfully checked in /usr/share/applications for the app's .desktop files: they are not there.

Doing alt+f2, r and rebooting does not work. Some of them were installed through AUR

How to "refresh" my "Applications" list then?

Thanks in advance

Did you look in ~/.local/share/applications/ ?
