For certain file types (like PDF) my "Open With…" Finder menu has become uselessly long, and I would like to remove some specific items from it.
How do I remove specific items from my "Open With…" menu in High Sierra?
Note, this is not a duplicate of the many similar questions about how to reset the menu, nor (I hope) of the several very old questions with no or outdated answers on the same topic.

Info.plist
with your favorite text editor<string>file extension</string>
.<string>gif</string>
) then save the file.killall Finder
