Show desktop not showing
Sometime, we delete show desktop icon in the quick launch menu. You can recover it manually by creating a file called “Show desktop.scf“. Open Notepad, and type in the following lines :
[shell]
Command=2
IconFile=explorer.exe,3
[taskbar]
Command=ToggleDesktop
Save “Show Desktop.scf” file by selecting the “save as” type as All Files - to prevent the file being saved as “Show Desktop.scf.txt“
Now all you have to do is drag this file to the Quick Launch toolbar and your Show Desktop icon is restored.
Another quick way is to use the Regsvr32 command. Go to Start> Run and type in “regsvr32 /n /i:U shell32.dll“. This should restore the desktop icon. You will get a message “DllInstall in Shell32.dll succeeded”
