Renaming Linux KDE Menu Items

InternalFatalError · 05-22-2017, 11:03 PM

Hey All,

So this might be an unusual request, but i want to know how to RENAME the the shutdown shortcut in KDE menu.

I found a program called "KDE menu Editor" (kmenuedit)

But this program doesn't list the leave menu (shut down, reset etc) as an option, lists pretty much everything else tho.

I've spent quite a few hours now looking through all the files i can find with the word "menu" in it, hoping i can edit a simple text config file, but cant find it.

So here i am asking the pros for help

oohhh kde - got a find what is it using to name it, then see if you can edit it. in other words what config file has control of its naming. then open it up and what exactly is it you want to change? the name of it itself or the "shutdown" to "turn me off" etc?

Hey BW,

Technically its "Whonix"
But is built on KDE

Yes, i simply want to change the name displayed in the menu from "shut down" to something else

I've really tried looking to find what controls its name, but need help.

It's probably a .desktop file. So start by locating those.
