Desktop icon disappeared from toolbar

[glenn]

The "desktop" icon has disappeared from my quick launch
toolbar. I was doing some moving around that did it
somehow, probably.

How do I make the "desktop" icon appear in my quicklaunch?

TIA

Jessica posted the same problem with subject line of "help" but not before
you could see it. See Brian's reply to it.

Not sure where Jessica's post it but if you go to Help and type in =
"Re-create Show Desktop" you will get written instructions with the =
added bonus of being able them to the Help Favourites (I manage to =
delete mine about once a month :) You would think I had the instructions =
memorized by now....)

Hi Glenn,

Manual Edit:

Copy and paste the five lines below into Notepad.

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

Then save it as Show Desktop.scf and drag it to your quick launch bar.

Automated Edit:
