Somehow, Apple's App Store app icons are duplicated in the Launchpad on my MacBook Pro running macOS 11.5 (Big Sur).
Since this is a system-level application, I cannot delete one of these redundant icons. I tried the strategies that I found on the Internet, i.e.,
1. Remove
~/Library/Application Support/Dock/*.db
2. Run defaults write com.apple.dock ResetLaunchPad -bool true
3. Run killall Dock
4. Restart the system
But these duplicated icons are still in Launchpad after reboot.
I am wondering how to remove one of them?
