Fixmenus definitely needs to be updated for bionicpup64.

Have you run Quickpet>Info>Bionicpup updates?
Rebooted and updated the save, so changes are now being used?

The things you do not tell us, are usually the clue to fixing the problem.
When I was a kid, I wanted to be older.
This is not what I expected :o

Using fixmenus in bionicpup64 does not work.

Exactly what are you trying to add to the menu?

Does it have a .desktop file for it in /usr/share/applications/?
If no.
Fixmenus has nothing to use for information, to put something in the menu.
The .desktop file for the program, has the needed information.
