I have win 7 ultimate.

I read a great write up on how to create a "show desktop" shortcut. It tells how to add the icon to the taskbar.

http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/26379-show-desktop-icon-taskbar.html

I followed the directions which included writting a file to the c:/windows folder but, windows says I do not have permission to contact the admn. well, I checked my "account" and it is set to Admin...

Oh and I can created a folder in c:/windows just not a file?

Isn't that wierd??? :sarc:

I know, but it is so small that if I have a hangover, I can not hit it with my mouse.:D
