Right-click on it, and the applet name should be right at the top of the context menu.
Ah, there it hides :-)
I use "whisker menu" instead of the default Xfce menu. Most Xfce-based distros seem to be using it.
15.0 uses it by default, or at least I got it.
Otherwise, I have to remember the name of the application and type its name on the main "menu", and I get the entry - what good is a main menu if I have to type the name of the application to get it?
I bind the Whisker menu to the Super (Windows) key. Then a tap of Super and a few letters of the app name get me the app I want -- much quicker than browsing, if I already know the name of the app. This is the same way that both Ubuntu Unity and GNOME Shell app launchers work, and Win8.x/Win10, and it's very close to cmd-space on macOS, so for me it has the benefit of familiarity.
But finding a tool to do something, if you don't know the name of the app yet, becomes very difficult. Try finding something to handle PGP keys. Or bluetooth! And when you find it, you might find that it is an app for another desktop. - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
