After a parallels desktop is installed, there are many more icons in the launchpad in OSX, but many of them are not what I want. How can we delete or modify them? The following describes some methods:

① Directly operate the Appications folder

The launchpad application is located at/Applications and/User/Name/Applications. You can modify and delete the application by yourself.

② Operate the database

Some icons may have been deleted, but the icons are still on the Launchpad. You can delete them in a simple way. Click the icon and add a question mark to the icon, then drag it to Trash. The following describes how to delete a database.
The Launchpad data is stored in/Users/Name/Library/Application Support/Dock. The files under my mac are as follows:
69CDDDAD-01D7-40C7-83A4-1E88292D5765.db export toppicture. db. We operate on this database file with a long name. This is a database file saved by the sqlite database and can be operated using the mesasqlite gui tool or command line. The following information is displayed in the database. What makes sense is a table called apps.

To delete some applications, you can directly perform some SQL operations on the apps table.
