Do we need to restart or log out for this to take effect? I have even trashed the LaunchServices pref file and the Droplets folder after Zip archiving & then emptied the Trash, relaunched the Finder but I still get the long list of apps & droplets.

Thanks a lot. I've often wondered how to get rid of that annoyingly long list of droplets, but never enough to actually look into what to do about them. This worked perfectly. Great tip.
