Just copy your .desktop files from the terminal.

First, locate the new files created for your (local) user. These
should be located in your home folder (probably at
~/.local/share/applications). Each new entry in your menu will be a
*.desktop file.

Copy these files to: /usr/share/applications
Change the ownership to root:root with +r for users, groups, other

All other users will then have the menu entries you have created.
Removing files from this location should reverse the process -
although removing items you did not create may not be so simple.
