When I click the 'show desktop' icon in the system tray
of my taskbar, the following message appears "the 'show
desktop.scf' that this shortcut refers to has been
changed or moved and will no longer work". Any idea how
I can restore the shortcut?
 
Hi,

Delete it and create a new one. Copy/paste the below into notepad, then use
file/save as and call it show desktop.scf.

[Shell]
Command=2
IconFile=EXPLORER.EXE,3
[Taskbar]
Command=ToggleDesktop
