Can't remove icon from "show applications" screen

I updated Firefox and an old version remains on the "show applications" screen. I suspected it might be another profile, so I went to about:profiles and removed it, but it's still there. As I am relatively new to Linux (Ubuntu specifically), I would appreciate some help with this issue.

Can you show the issue.

Note that Firefox 113 has not been released officially, so if you have this version then this is a developer version that likely comes with its own profile.

Attached is the image of my "show applications" screen. The profile that can be accessed there is version 112.0.2, and the one I'm using presently is 113.0. I was prompted to update by the browser earlier when I went to open it first thing after booting my computer.
