Remove Windows Programs from LaunchPad and Spotlight

Hello.

I've been working with VMware Fusion 5.0.3 just fine.

I had a problem on Finder with the "Open With" contextual menu and fixed it, so I had to populate again the list of Apps in that menu. Because of this, I moved some setting from the Virtual Machine causing other problems, as explained below:

 

From the Virtual Machine Library \ Settings \ Default Applications, I checked and un-checked several times:

  "Open your Mac files and web links using Windows applications"

  "Run Windows applications from your Mac's Applications folder"

  "Restore Applications"

 

By now, I have the next configuration:

  "Open your Mac files and web links using Windows applications" - Checked

  "Open your Windows files and web links using Mac applications" - Checked

  "Run Windows applications from your Mac's Applications folder" - Unchecked

 

The consequence of moving these configuration, is that Launchpad and Spotlight are now displaying the list of programs I have in Virtual Machine, and so far by searching on the web, there is no easy way to set back as a "fresh install" of the Virtual Machine and how it integrates with OS X.

 

Any ideas?

Thanks!
