Restore The "Show Desktop" Icon


Some times the "Show Desktop" icon in the 'Quick Launch' bar goes missing, and there is a method to re-create the "Show Desktop" icon. Open Notepad and type the following :

[Shell]
Command=2
IconFile=explorer.exe,3
[Taskbar]
Command=ToogleDesktop

Save this file as "Show Desktop.scf"(without Quotes), and then drag it to the Quick Launch bar. And there is another way to re-create "Show Desktop" icon in the 'Quick Launch' bar. At command prompt, type

regsvr32/n/i:U shell32.dll

The "Show Desktop" icon should now be visible in the 'Quick Launch' bar.
