Help! The minimise all windows button has gone!

[rob_frost]

I have Windows 2k, and at the bottom left of the screen, just to the right of the start button are a few icons ( still on the taskbar). I have shortcuts of IE, MP3 player, etc. I also had a little icon that was there from the beginning, which when you clicked on it, minimised all the windows. Somehow, I have managed to delete it ( its not in the recycle bin ).

I can't find a way of getting it back. I never realised how much I use it, and its a right pain not having it. Hope some one can help

Thanks

Rob, this is the "Show Desktop" icon. On my xp machine it is located in CDocuments and Settings\User\Application Data\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch. On my ME machine it's on CWindows.................................etc.

Type of file : Windows Explorer Command.
Description : Show Desktop.

Hopefully, you just deleted the shortcut and you should be able to locate the file and drag it back to the taskbar. Hope it works.
