Hey does anyone know if this works for Vista aswell? Cheers

Capo, it DOES work in Vista. However, it restores it with the Windows XP icon for Show Desktop instead of the Vista version. When I first bought Vista I would have liked that because the icon being different annoyed me, lol. But now that I’m used to the Vista icon I want THAT instead.

Anyone know where that icon is located?

Nevermind, I found it. Duh.

this is nice,
it works
i like that i hv learned a new thing

Did anyone figure out how to get the icon to look like the vista “show desktop” icon instead of the vista “show desktop” icon?

Hi there.

To re-create your show desktop icon, but using the Vista icon image simply use the following code instead:

[Shell]
Command=2
IconFile=shell32.dll,34
[Taskbar]
Command=ToggleDesktop

Hope that helps :)

people, stop believing everything one tells you to do….just go to the microsoft support websites and there you’ll get the perfect and SAFE solution to your problem !

Method 2

1. Use Windows Explorer to locate the following folders:

Microsoft Windows 95 and Microsoft Windows 98
Windows\Application Data\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch

Microsoft Windows NT, Microsoft Windows 2000, and Microsoft Windows XP
C:\Documents and Settings\Username\Application Data\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch

Note Username refers to the account name where you want to put the icon.

2. Use the mouse to drag the Show Desktop.scf file to the Quick Launch folder.

3. Click Move Here.

Note By default, the Application Data folder for Windows NT, Windows 2000, and Windows XP is a hidden folder. You may have to unhide this folder by using the Advanced Settings in Internet Explorer. Click the Show hidden files and folders option.

OMG Thank you so much I was going nuts trying to get the Vista Icon For Show Desktop but thEn I used my brain and found this site! THANK YOU SO MUCH!

For Vista, follow Raj’s Method 2 but use this path instead:

C:\Users\\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch
