Desktop "shortcut" missing from Explorer and Common Dialogs
Somehow I managed to remove the "Desktop" item on the shortcut pane in Explorer - which also affects Common Dialog boxes. It is incredibly annoying as I use this shortcut all the time. How do I get it back? I've looked all over but no where has answers! Thanks!

Hello Lynxy, and welcome to Seven Forums.
I believe that you will just need to right click on a empty space in the navigation pane and click on Show All Folders to see it again. Hope this helps, Shawn |

"Show all folders" does work but it is very cluttered, I can't stand it. I've also tried dragging "Desktop" into favorites but it does not stick. Is there any possible way to get it back to how it was?

A "show desktop" shortcut that actually minimises all windows? While I know that the "show desktop" button that is by default on the far right of the taskbar does the job pretty well, it unfortunately does not play nicely with multiple monitor programs/rainmeter. So I was wondering if it was possible to write a shortcut that does the same thing as manually... |
