How to rebuild the LaunchServices database
Authored by: PeaceFreak on Dec 16, '05 09:15:47PM

This worked for me:

/System/Library/Frameworks/ApplicationServices.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/LaunchServices.framework/Versions/A/Support/lsregister -kill -r -f -domain local -domain system -domain user "/Applications"

Just wish there was a way to manually edit the applications in the list as there are many listed that I never use!

I can confirm this worked for me on 10.4.9.
