    Hi *,

    I am new to Deepin, using V20.8.

    I have installed a 3rd party application, which does not enter itself into the start menu of Deepin.
    How can I add it manually so that it will show up there?

    I would like to add it to the category "Development".

    Can someone tell me how to add it there?

    Thank you
    Daniel

    The only way is to create a .desktop file related to it and move it to /usr/share/applications/ . Try to refer to other .desktop files. You can set the category as Development in it.
