How to redo the Show icon Desktop from the Quick Launch toolbar, if it was deleted?

Personally, I succeeded to delete Show Desktopin Quick Launch and it was kind of stressful, because I was used to using “show desktop", When I had many windows open.

Icon "Show Desktop", Is not a regular shortcut program. To recreate this icon “show desktop”(Workspace display), in the toolbar Quick Launch It is necessary to follow a few steps.

1. click Home , click Run, Write notepad, And then click OK.

2. In Notepad, write the following text below, on the lines (or copy/paste below):

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

3. Menu Filletin Notepad , click Save As and save the file to desktop by name Show Desktop.scf .

*Notepad- can automatically add the .txt extension to this file. Wipe. Txt extension and add the extension. Scf . If you have saved the file under the .txt extension, you can edit with "rename”. Delete the name Show Desktop.txt and instead of writing Show Desktop.scf. Will open a windows warning to ask if you agree to change the file extension.

After being saved on desktop file Show Desktop.scf , it will have to be taken to the Quick Launch bar. The simplest method is to move it with the mouse. Select and drag (drag & drop) the file from desktop, above the Quick Launch bar.

In this way, Create a shortcut of the Show file Desktop.scf in Quick Launch. If you want this command file to be added directly to Quick Launch, copy the file to the folder:
