On GNOME desktop environment, I have added an app to favorites and I can launch the app from that list clicking on the icon of the favorites list.

But when I launch, a similar icon of the app appears side by side. I mean, two icons of the app are showing instead of one. Where should I create a .desktop file so that when I click on the app icon, it launches with no redundant icon?

If this application is for just one user that you are using you should create the .desktop in the .local/share/applications

But if you need to make the application global so that all other users in your system can use it so you should create it in the /usr/share/applications
