How do I delete the Chrome App Launcher?

Question

I'm running OSX 10.8.5 and I can't figure out how to get rid of the Chrome App Launcher.

In launchpad when I long click on it and things begin to wiggle there's no X for me to click to delete it. I've also tried dragging it to the trash but that doesn't work. I've used Finder to look through my applications and I can't find it there to delete it either.

I want it gone :(

Solution

Go to /Users/YOUR_HOME_FOLDER/Applications and delete the folder Chrome Apps.

Specifically, you only have to delete "Chrome App Launcher", not the entire "Chrome Apps" folder. This is good for those who want to keep say Hangouts, etc., but don't want the App Launcher itself.
