In future, please don't check and uncheck items in the Menu without checking with us first. Thank you
Maybe a better idea I think would be making the Restore System Configuration button work to restore the Linux Lite menu back to it's default state, currently it doesn't seem to do that, not on 2.8 anyway.
People aren't going to check in here before they make those types of changes.
From memory I think I broke my menus a while ago unchecking/deleting entries too, the plan was at the time to leave the Whisker menu as it was & put an Applications Menu on the panel beside the Whisker menu and remove everything but the WINE launcher entries so I had Whisker for everything & then beside it an Applications menu for only the WINE stuff.
What I unfortunately discovered was editing the applications via the new Applications menu also affected the Whisker menu, as everything I removed from the new Apps menu was also removed from the Whisker menu at the same time.
I think I reinstalled the OS to sort that mess out, LOL.
Definately something XFCE could handle a lot better than it currently does.
Perhaps even removing the 'Edit Applications' from the Whisker icon's right-click menu might alleviate some future issues?
Still leaving Alacarte to be run from Terminal if one so desires 8)
EDIT: I see if the original Whisker menu is removed from the Panel, and then added again from the Panel > Add New Items menu, the right click on the icon's option to Edit Applications no longer works and is greyed out.
