Desktop files could be on different locations.

The packages usually install the files to

/usr/share/applications/

menulibre ($USER) has no write access there.

your edits are most likely located in

$HOME/.local/share/applications/

One thing you can do in menulibre is select the launcher, then select/copy the file/path at the bottom of the screen, paste it into a root terminal and edit away. :-)

I do this more often than not. It's the only way to avoid local *.desktop files masking the system files. I just edit the system files directly. I'm the only user on the box (my PC) so it doesn't matter.
