Show Desktop icon in Quick Launch missing

Posted by liggyman in IT issues, Knowledge Base

Every now and then I will be multitasking and will move the Show Desktop icon off the Quick Launch toolbar.  Sometimes clients will delete this icon not realizing how much they actually use it.

To replace it open Notepad and enter the following text:

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

Save the file as ‘Show Desktop.scf’ and place it in the ‘%userprofile%\Application Data\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch’ folder.
