Send to Desktop won't work

[Guest]

I'm using XP SP2 -- I used to have a right-click item under SEND TO >
Desktop. I don't have Desktop as an option anymore. When I look in
my D&S profile send to folder, I see the Desktop icon, along with a
few others.

How can I get my SEND TO > Desktop right-click context menu back?

That added "send to email recipient" -- which I didn't want.
How do I add "send to DESKTOP" ???

That adds the "Desktop (create shortcut)" link automatically in my systems. Is the file named "Desktop (create shortcut)" present in the Send To folder?

No, Ramesh -- it isn't present in my Send To folder. (Although the icon for
the Desktop is present).

For more clarity:

Click Start, Run and type:

shell:sendto

Press Enter. (The SendTo folder opens)

See if the file "Desktop (create shortcut)" is present in that folder. If it is missing, you can get a copy of the file from the following location:

C:\Documents and Settings\Default User\SendTo
