It will also appear elsewhere (launcher => System => VirtualBox) Favourites is just a shortcut to the launcher entry. > How can I determine what executable and how it is called. > > Moreover, how can I edit that call? > > Right-click on the KDE icon at the base of the launcher (menu) Select "Menu Editor" from the drop-down list Expand the Category you're interested in eg. System Left-click on the entry eg. VirtualBox You'll see the command and can edit it, if you click on the Advanced tab you can change the work path, left-click on the (VirtualBox) icon to edit it's properties. Though you don't ask:- ;Right-clicking on the KDE launch icon will give you access to the Application Launcer Settings - it'll also allow you to turn off "Kick off menu style". ;Right-clicking on the bottom panel will allow you to "Unlock Widgets" (it's under Panel Options) - when widgets are unlocked you can right-click on any launcher (KDE menu) entry and assign it to the Desktop, Favourites, or the Panel.
