Related Application and/or Package Version (run apt policy $PACKAGE NAME):
I don't know its specific package name, Just use shortcuts 'Super+/' to open Navigate

Issue/Bug Description:
for example, I manually install a binary file, '.desktop' file in ~/.local/share/applications, and when I remove '.desktop' file, in Gnome search, it will not exist, but When I use Navigate through 'Super+/', it still in there, I guess there exist some cache, but I don't know how to update it

Steps to reproduce (if you know):

  1. create a '*.desktop' file in ~/.local/share/applications;
  2. find it through 'Super+/';
  3. rm desktop file in step 1;
  4. it still could be found in 'Super+/';

Expected behavior:

  1. it disappear in Navigate through shortcut: 'Super+/';
