When you click on the gear icon on the GDM login screen, it provides a list of the available desktop environments so you can pick between them.

Since I exclusively use Mate on this computer, how can I remove the other options from that menu? Earlier today when I logged in the machine decided on its own that what I really wanted was Gnome Classic, so I had to log out to change it back to Mate, then log in again.

I would like to tell it to use Mate exclusively, with no other options to select by mistake.

The best way to achieve your end is to delete the unused desktop installations from your machine. Software not installed is the best defence against attack directed at that software.
