Hello MrT, and welcome to Seven Forums.
You can right click on Favorites and click on restore Favorite links. If that does not restore it, then you can go to C:\Users\(username) and drag the Desktop folder into the Favorites area to copy it back there.
Hope this helps,
Shawn

Brink, are you sure that's going to work. Desktop is not part of Libraries, it is part of Favorites. I would try to right click on Favorites and use "Restore favorite links". I am not sure either whether that works because I did not want to experiment with my system - but it seems more logical. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number HP, Dell, Gateway, Toshiba - 4 laptops and 2 desktops OS Vista, Windows7, Mint Mate, Zorin, Windows 8 CPU from 1.6GHz Duo to i7 Monitor(s) Displays 2x HP w2207 Keyboard with trackball - no mices Mouse Trackball mice Hard Drives 5x HDD, 7x SSD, 12x Externals Internet Speed DSL 6000 |

Not really an answer directly to your question but--
WIN + D will always get you the Desktop.
Here WIN denotes that key with funny looking wavy flag on it. Simply hold the key down and tap the D key.
Another approach:
WIN + T (to bring up the taskbar if you've got it hidden)
On the far right-hand side of the taskbar is a narrow rectangle.
Click on that rectangle or just pause over it to get a view of your desktop
I've never used the Desktop folder approach as I prefer the two approaches I've mentioned. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Toshiba Satellite S875D-S7239 laptop OS MS Windows 7 Ultimate SP1 64-bit CPU AMD A10-4600M Motherboard AMD Pumori (Socket FT1) Memory 6.00 GB Dual-Channel DDR3 @ 798MHz (11-11-12-28) Graphics Card AMD Radeon HD 7660G Sound Card High Definition Audio Device Monitor(s) Displays Generic PnP Monitor (1600x900@60Hz) Screen Resolution 1600x900@60Hz Keyboard Standard PS/2 Keyboard Mouse HP Wireless Optical Mobile Mouse Model FHA-3410 Hard Drives SSD 119GB Corsair CSSD-V128GB2 ATA Device Internet Speed What the local pub, local coffee shop offers.

Even easier - if you click on the very bottom right of the screen in the taskbar (to the right of the clock), that brings the desktop up. And if you click again, you are back to where you were. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number HP, Dell, Gateway, Toshiba - 4 laptops and 2 desktops OS Vista, Windows7, Mint Mate, Zorin, Windows 8 CPU from 1.6GHz Duo to i7 Monitor(s) Displays 2x HP w2207 Keyboard with trackball - no mices Mouse Trackball mice Hard Drives 5x HDD, 7x SSD, 12x Externals Internet Speed DSL 6000 |
