What happened to my show desktop icon in the Quick Start menu when I upgraded to Firefox 4?
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!). I see that the icon was not just moved but DELETED and I'm not at all happy about it. What happened and how I get it back? Thank you. (By the way, I don't want a fancy with a bunch of words irritable instructions. I need the answer in a format that can follow a student of 1st year. (Thank you.)
You can create a new shortcut easily enough. Just drag it into the Quick Launch bar on with the right mouse button and then choose "Create shortcut here" from the menu you get.

"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.

Wallpaper only appears 150% more fat when I uncheck "show desktop icons".
I use XP3 all updates.
Problem: When I uncheck "show desktop icons" my desktop background immediately appears as if it is 150% larger than my screen. (stop right and down)
When "show desktop icons" is checked, I see my desktop icons and I see the background as usual. I can stretch. I can focus. I can tile. I like it.
But at the time when I uncheck "show desktop icons" describes the problem is present. I can't stretch it. I can't focus. I can not the tile. I hate it.
When I come back to check "show desktop icons", my icons appear and I am able to stretch, focus and my background image tiles.
What pasa?

If a right click the office click on view, then uncheck show desktop icons and restart or turn off and turn on my computer can I repeat these steps, and then show the desktop icons check will be the same icons that I had before reappearing!
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 -

No idea how to get back them?
Hi Matt,Some infections of virus/malware will hide all files and shortcuts on your computer. To make your files visible again, download display on your desktop.Once downloaded, double-click display and let it run. It removes the attribute hidden on all files and attempt to restore items in quick launch and Start Menu to their location.If you think that your computer is still infected, try following the steps in this virus/malware removal guide: http://www.selectrealsecurity.com/malware-removal-guideIt contains instructions which will remove most malware infections. If you have any questions, just ask me. I hope this helps you.Brian -
