Hello
I accidentally deleted the Show Desktop icon which sits normally on the
bottom left hand corner of the Task Bar. Grateful if you can tell me how
do I reinstate it.
I am using Windows XP. Thank you and best regards

An even better solution (IMHO) is to add the Desktop toolbar to your
toolbar
and minimize it to the right. then when you click on the double arrow head
to the right of "Desktop" you get a menu of what's on your desktop. Much
more useful than suddenly showing all the desktop.

That's neat.
