• Show hidden/missing of the desktop icons

  original title: hide the desktop icons

  Hide the icons on desktop on Windows 7 seems a fairly common theme in these forums, but I still have to find a solution that works. The standard response is to right click on the desktop, click view, and then remove the checkmark "show desktop icons". To do this I have to go through the process, not once but twice. After signing and signature later back on I have to repeat this procedure. Tutorial Windows gives the impression that removing the "Show desktop icons" check will keep these icons are displayed until you handed the check mark. This isn't the case for me. Miss me how crucial link in this puzzle?

  Thank you very much.

  No matter how many new accounts are created, one of them must be considered with the administrator account and corruption is obviously attached to her.

  Incorrect answer.  You can have hundreds + administrator accounts.  There are still only * one * original built-in Administrator account.  If every account you create ends with this issue, then something is corrupt overall.  If the problem is only for a user account once you make them an administrator - I'd guess malware infestation can only be solved in the long term by a format and a new installation of the system and all of the affected software.

  When you create a new account - copy less.  Ignore the suggestion to Microsoft article.

  What you want to copy is: Desktop, Favorites and Documents on the Start Menu.  Leave everything else at the moment.

  Let me be as accurate as possible...

  If your old account user was named "GoodbyeDolly" and your new account is "HelloDolly", you will copy the following (after creating and logging into the new "HelloDolly" administrator-level account).

  Copy everything under:
  C:\Users\GoodbyeDolly\Favorites
  TO
  C:\Users\HelloDolly\Favorites

  Copy everything under:
  C:\Users\GoodbyeDolly\Desktop
  TO
  C:\Users\HelloDolly\Desktop

  Copy everything under:
  C:\Users\GoodbyeDolly\Documents
  TO
  C:\Users\HelloDolly\Documents

  Copy everything under:
  C:\Users\GoodbyeDolly\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu
  TO
  C:\Users\HelloDolly\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu

  Nothing else at this time.  NOTHING.  Not a single file.  Not a single setting.  Do nothing else for the new account in terms of trying to get stuff from the old account.

  You * will * need to configure your homepage (s) Internet.  You should know where your previously saved word, excel, and other office documents.  You must assign the account 'HelloDolly' his own password.  There may be dozens of other customizations that can be (will be) different for each user of a computer that you * will * have to do.  Wallpaper, computer sounds when you do certain things, the disposal of the office icons themselves, the order of the start menu, which is visible on the taskbar and how and when, etc.

  If your question is not more with this method - come back and let us know.

• Show Desktop icon is missing from the Quick Launch bar

  Original title: Windows Search

  I have Windows XP, home edition, SP3, IE8, and I lost one of my desktop icons that I use frequently. This is the icon that is always in the taskbar, as well as a few others. The icon is what opens on the desktop whenever you click on it. It is a white square that looks like a block of office paper, with a figure of what looks like a pencil or pen appearing thereon.  Somehow, somehow, it was deleted, and I can't find where to get it back. I have been in the control panel on 'VIEW' and no luck, only we in the menu of the taskbar and start and he can find, checked a large number of menus that contain the word "Desktop" in it and I clicked on a large number of them also without a bit of luck too. Once more, he is a white icon and is still in the taskbar at the bottom of the screen of the monitor. Someone knows must return this icon... any help would be appreciated.

  I value and often use the button SHOW DESKTOP which has always been in my QUICK START MENU... until I recently upgraded to the latest version of Firefox because he promised to be faster (and my experience online in spite of paying for "high speed" is anything but fast!).

  Yes. This control simply allows you to show or hide. It does not change the contents of the desktop (C:\Users\\Desktop) user-defined folder. Good luck, Rick Rogers, aka "Crazy" - Microsoft MVP http://mvp.support.microsoft.com Windows help - www.rickrogers.org

• Missing the 'Show Desktop' button in the Vista Quick Launch toolbar

  Miss me the button show desktop, after that I had run Uniblue registry on my computer. How can I get that back, I tried the option to restore to uniblue, but it did not work

  Never use cleaners registry/Boosters.

  Try a system restore to a Date before the problem began:

  Restore point:

  http://www.howtogeek.com/HOWTO/Windows-Vista/using-Windows-Vista-system-restore/

  Do the restore of the system in Safe Mode, if it is impossible to do in Normal Mode.

  Try typing F8 at startup and in the list of Boot selections, select Mode safe using ARROW top to go there > and then press ENTER.

  Try a restore of the system once, to choose a Restore Point prior to your problem...

  Click Start > programs > Accessories > system tools > system restore > choose another time > next > etc.

  Read the above for a very good graph shows how backward more than 5 days in the System Restore Points by checking the correct box.

• How do you install an icon show desktop in my taskbar (similar to that available on my XP machine)?

  Or y at - it a faster way to get back on the desktop when many windows are open on the screen?

  Allurfine/Chimel:

  The 'show desktop' icon is redundant, good stuff... OK, so, we'll put it all together:

  (1) How to create icon "Show Desktop" - and place it on start bar (or indeed in any folder you want that you have write access to the disk):

  Click Start and run, type notepad in the Open box, and then click OK.
  Copy carefully and then paste the following text in the Notepad window:
  [Shell]

  Order = 2

  IconFile = explore .exe, 3

  [Taskbar]

  Command = ToggleDesktop

  On the file menu, click Save as, and then save the file to your desktop as "Show desktop.scf". The show, the desktop icon is created on your desktop.

  Once you have created the icon, you can also drag on the start bar and access it from the start menu if you wish.

  2) show the desktop on the taskbar icon:

  On the right bar or a task far beyond date and time zone.

  (3) computer access from desktop with Windows-D.

  * There you go. Here are 3 ways you can use show desktop. All are redundant. That said, Windows is full of redundancies if you want to get technical - I'm guessing another synonym for this is "user friendly". Use any method you want. I think the point is to have as many options as possible and use Windows in any way works best for you.

  Good luck

• Win7 detail: the "Show Desktop" taskbar icon has DOUBLED in width since the initial, unable to restore to the default size.

  The icon show desktop (Aero Peek) in the lower right corner of the taskbar has doubled in width since the initial installation.

  Screenshot links.

  I'm a fairly comfortable power user - I went through the registry with nothing doesn't. I tried setting the MinWidth for icons, but that affects only the open application icons. Bing search gave no possible causes. This isn't a serious error - and I can live with that. However, I would like to understand how it happened so it isn't double size again... and again... and again.

  I also installed a bamboo tablet, and my button display the office doubled in width.  I was able to restore it to the original (narrowness) by opening the control panel and open "turn Windows features On or Off".  I then unchecked "Components Tablet PC" and restarted the computer, and the button was back to normal.

  This disables the features of handwriting comes with Windows, but the Flick and feather options are always available.  Because I do not use the pen to write with, it worked perfectly for me and I could use my tablet of bamboo without problem.

• "Show Desktop" shortcut on the Quick Launch toolbar

  So in trying to fix the "My Computer" shortcut on my QuickLaunch toolbar, I accidently deleted the shortcut "Show Desktop".  I found bugs to take him back, but they use all the old icons of xp/vista/etc.  They don't also create a tab to change the icons like 7.  It's kind of picky, but I liked the new icon for the office and I would return to this shortcut.  Someone help me out here?

  Thank you.

  Found the answer.  Here it is for all those who need it in the future.
