Comment 25 for bug 664751

I downloaded the patch, opened it and found it refers to "mintMenu/plugins/easybuttons.py"

So... I edited /usr/lib/linuxmint/mintMenu/plugins/easybuttons.py

But I didn't find
self.appExec = desktopItem.getExec()

I supossed it's because I have LM 17.3. Instead it was
self.appExec = self.strip_accents(desktopItem.getExec())

So I changed to
self.appExec = self.strip_accents(desktopItem.getExec().replace('\\\\', '\\'))

Logged out and in but didn't work.
