this the case of my libreoffice-writer.desktop that it has two entries

Exec=libreoffice --writer %U

and

Exec=libreoffice --writer

but I also have others with just one e.g. medit.desktop

Exec=medit %F

and with two commands e.g. vlc.desktop

Exec=/usr/bin/vlc --started-from-file %U
TryExec=/usr/bin/vlc

but instead of using "TryExec" for the generated menu it uses "Exec" ...
