Restoring deleted Show Desktop icon

I accidentally deleted the "Show Desktop" icon from the Quick Launch bar. How can I restore it back? please help!

1. Paste following code in Notepad and save the file with name "Show Desktop.scf" (including quotes):

Code:

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

2. Now you have to copy this new file and paste in "Quick Launch" toolbar. You can do it in 2 ways:

A. Drag-n-drop the new file to Quick Launch toolbar.

B. Type "%appdata%\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch" in RUN dialog box and press Enter. It'll open Quick Launch folder. Paste the file in this folder.

Taken from here.
