While erasing useless shortcuts from my Quick Launch bar, I accidentally erased the Show Desktop icon, and I want it back. How do I recover it?

Open Notepad and enter the following text:

[Shell]
Command=2
IconFile=explorer.exe,3
[Taskbar]
Command=ToggleDesktop

Save the new file as Show Desktop.scf then drag and drop the icon on the Quick Launch bar or whatever location you want the shortcut to appear.

Copy the above into Notepad and save the file with a .scf extension. That should bring it back for you ;)

EDIT: Foodpk beat me to it :hitman:
