[SOLVED] Removing "Chrome Apps" category from KDE app launcher

Hey there, I have this issue on my KDE install, after I had switched browsers from Chrome to Firefox, and after removing Chrome, I found a new category planted in my application launcher (the full-screen one for those who speak KDE) named "Chrome Apps" which seem to be links to websites that launch using Chrome and are related to Google (examples like YT, Google Docs and Gmail).

Does anyone have any idea how I can remove them? Thanks much!

Those are probably Desktop entries. Check your user-specific .desktop files.

Wouldn't you know, it was at

~/.local/share/applications/

Thanks!
