My "show desktop" icon has disappeared from my quick launch tool bar. I have not been able to satisfactorly bring it back. If I create a short cut to the desk top it shows the icons in desktop under the user's desktop folder. I have had SP2 on for over a month, this happened within the last week.

Managing All Programs Menu? How Too?
Hi Harry, The method I use is to create subfolders under All Programs and move the appropriate shortcuts to these folders. For instance I use Utilities. Multimedia, Internet etc. Use whatever you want. To create the subfolders right click on the start button and sellect " Explore all Users " In the explorer screen add directries under Start Menu\Programs\ ( New folders here ) The new folders will apear under the All Programs than you can drag and drop to organize the situation.

Thank you. But I am not sure what to do at that window. I am not the greatest when it comes to users.

3.Quick Launch icons missing ...
Vista Home Premium - at some point in the last 24 hours, the icons on my Quick launch toolbar have stopped being displayed - the appropriate short cuts are in the correct folder (and work when I launch them directly) but are not appearing on the toolbar - any ideas?
There were originally two icons next to each other in quick launch. One was show desktop and the other took all of the open windows and displayed them kinda on top of each other so that you could see a snapshot of what was open all at one time. That second icon is now missing. Can someone tell me how to get it back? Thanks TIA.
