Launchpad can not be deleted or remove the Operating System as it is Built into the Operating System installed on the computer.


It can be removed from the Dock but the Application still resides in the Application Folder of the computer.


Just go to Applications Folder in Finder and Drag and Drop the icon ( Launchpad ) back onto the Dock.
