I lost the show desktop Icon in my Quick Launch toolbar
and do not know how to get it back.
Thanks
 
It did not work I think something is wrong with my xp
since the program it restored was a Sim Tunes file called
Show Desktop.scf. Somehow the my file was damaged is
there a way to fix it?
 
Yes, installing Sims programs hijacks the SCF file extension. See www.dougknox.com, Win XP Fixes, File Association Fixes, SCF File Association Fix.
