I edited the main menu in the preferences, the main menu is a mass now

items go into an "others" menu

then I tried:

apt-get install --reinstall kali-menu kali-defaults

it doesn't work!

and I can't upload an image here, don't know why..

same problem, also like this thread.

I had the same problem. Just delete the file in ~/.config/menus/ It should be the only file in that folder, after that it should restore the applications menu to default.

delete menu customizations inside your home folder!

[excidius]

The menu is built from the *.desktop files in /usr/share/applications

All my Kali .desktop files are still in the folder. 'usr/share/applications' They're still not showing up in the menu though.

I tried booting off the live cd, and copying the .desktop files over my local installation... but still the same results.

Any ideas?

Edit: I fixed the problem by deleting: home/.config/menus/gnome-applications.menu

there's already a "fix" on that thread
