Body: <p>When editing or disabling Individual and Organization contact types, the main menu doesn't update the contact type. For example I disabled Student, Parent and Staff for Individual. The options under Contacts > Individuals > are still New Student, New Parent, and New Staff.</p>
  
  <p>I have checked this forum and found that there is already <a href="https://civicrm.stackexchange.com/questions/20312/contact-types-not-updating-in-main-menu">one question regarding this subject</a> telling that it is a bug. 
  I have upgraded to the very last version (5.17) and have the demo contacts records charged in the CiviCRM instance I use (under WP).</p>
  
  <p>Any idea ? Thanks in advance</p>
