After updating VLC a duplicate icon appeared in "Open With". How do you remove the extra icon of VLC?

Sounds like you still have the old version on your system.
What I would do, is use AppCleaner or AppZapper to completely remove VLC, and then download Version 1.0.3 again, and see if that solves it.
