If you aren’t a fan of scrolling your pointer over to the lower right corner of your monitor to show the desktop, we have a cool tweak that will allow you to add the Show Desktop icon to the Quick Launch bar or anywhere on your Taskbar.

如果您不喜欢将指针滚动到显示器的右下角以显示桌面，那么我们可以进行一些很酷的调整，使您可以将“显示桌面”图标添加到“快速启动”栏或任务栏上的任何位置。

If you want to easily get access to the Desktop in Windows 7, 8, or 10, you’ve undoubtedly noticed they moved the Show Desktop to the lower right corner of the screen. This can be annoying if you have a dual monitors, or even a large monitor.

如果您想轻松访问Windows 7、8或10中的桌面，您无疑会注意到他们将“显示桌面”移动到了屏幕的右下角。 如果您有双显示器甚至大显示器，这可能会很烦人。

There are a couple of ways you can make the Show Desktop icon more accessible. We’ll take a look at each and you can choose which method works best for you. We show both methods in Windows 10, but they will also work in Windows 7 and 8.

有两种方法可以使“显示桌面”图标更易于访问。 我们将仔细研究每种方法，您可以选择最适合您的方法。 我们在Windows 10中展示了这两种方法，但在Windows 7和8中也可以使用。

如何通过重新添加快速启动栏将“显示桌面”图标放回以前的位置 (How to Put the Show Desktop Icon Back to Where it Used to Be by Adding Back the Quick Launch Bar)

The first method of moving the Show Desktop icon is to add back the Quick Launch bar to the Taskbar. The Quick Launch bar contains a Show Desktop option, so once you follow the steps in our article to bring back the Quick Launch bar, you should see the Show Desktop icon on the left side of the Taskbar. If you don’t, the article also describes how to move icons on the Quick Launch bar.

移动“显示桌面”图标的第一种方法是将“快速启动”栏重新添加到任务栏 。 快速启动栏包含一个“显示桌面”选项，因此，一旦按照本文中的步骤将“快速启动”栏带回去，您应该在任务栏的左侧看到“显示桌面”图标。 如果您不这样做，本文还将介绍如何在“快速启动”栏上移动图标。

This method will “kill two birds with one stone” by getting the Quick Launch bar and the Show Desktop icon back where they used to be in Windows.

通过使快速启动栏和“显示桌面”图标恢复到以前在Windows中的位置，此方法将“用一块石头杀死两只鸟”。

如何将显示桌面图标固定到任务栏 (How to Pin the Show Desktop Icon to the Taskbar)

If you don’t want the Quick Launch bar back, you could pin the icon to the Taskbar instead. Unfortunately, the process isn’t as easy as a simple drag and drop, but there is an easy workaround.

如果您不希望快速启动栏返回，则可以将图标固定在任务栏上。 不幸的是，该过程并不像简单的拖放那样简单，但是有一个简单的解决方法。

Right-click on any empty area of the desktop and go to New > Text Document.

右键单击桌面上的任何空白区域，然后转到“新建”>“文本文档”。

Rename the document to Show Desktop.exe.

将文档重命名为Show Desktop.exe 。

NOTE: You will need to have file extensions showing in order for this to work.

注意：您需要显示文件扩展名才能正常工作。

The following warning dialog box displays because you are changing the extension on the shortcut. Click the “Yes” button to change the name and extension on the shortcut.

显示以下警告对话框，因为您正在更改快捷方式上的扩展名。 单击“是”按钮更改快捷方式的名称和扩展名。

Right-click on the dummy .exe file you just made and select “Pin to taskbar” from the popup menu.

右键单击刚刚创建的虚拟.exe文件，然后从弹出菜单中选择“固定到任务栏”。

Create a new text file in Notepad, or your favorite text editor, and copy and paste the following code into the new file.

在记事本或您喜欢的文本编辑器中创建一个新的文本文件，然后将以下代码复制并粘贴到新文件中。

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

Press Ctrl+S to save the file. In the Save As dialog box, navigate to the following folder and make sure you select “All Files (*.*)” from the “Save as type” dropdown.

按Ctrl + S保存文件。 在“另存为”对话框中，导航到以下文件夹，并确保从“另存为类型”下拉列表中选择“所有文件(*。*)”。

C:\Users\<user name>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch\User Pinned\TaskBar

Replace <user name> with your Windows user name.

将<user name>替换<user name> Windows用户名。

NOTE: If you don’t see the AppData folder, you must check the “Show hidden files, folders, and drives” box on the View tab on the Folder Options dialog box.

注意：如果看不到AppData文件夹，则必须在“文件夹选项”对话框的“视图”选项卡上选中“显示隐藏的文件，文件夹和驱动器”框 。

Type Show Desktop.scf in the “File name” box and click the “Save” button.

在“文件名”框中键入Show Desktop.scf ，然后单击“保存”按钮。

Close Notepad (or your favorite text editor) by clicking the “X” button in the upper-right corner of the window.

通过单击窗口右上角的“ X”按钮，关闭记事本(或您喜欢的文本编辑器)。

Now, we’re going to edit the properties of the shortcut we pinned to the Taskbar. Right-click on the Show Desktop.exe icon, right-click again on the “Show Desktop” option on the popup menu, and then select “Properties from the second popup menu.

现在，我们将编辑固定到任务栏的快捷方式的属性。 右键单击Show Desktop.exe图标，再次右键单击弹出菜单上的“显示桌面”选项，然后从第二个弹出菜单中选择“属性”。

On the Properties dialog box, enter the following path into the Target box on the Shortcut tab, making sure to keep the quotes around the full path. The quotes are required because there are spaces in the path.

在“属性”对话框上，在“快捷方式”选项卡上的“目标”框中输入以下路径，确保将引号保留在完整路径的周围。 引号是必需的，因为路径中有空格。

"C:\Users\<user name>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch\User Pinned\TaskBar\Show Desktop.scf"

Again, replace <user name> with your user name.

同样，用您的用户名替换<user name> 。

Don’t close the Properties dialog box just yet! You have your new icon on the Taskbar, but you might want to change the icon to something more appealing.

暂时不要关闭“属性”对话框！ 您在任务栏上有了新图标，但是您可能希望将图标更改为更具吸引力的图标。

While the Properties dialog box is still open, and the Shortcut tab is still active, click the “Change Icon” button.

在“属性”对话框仍然打开且“快捷方式”选项卡仍处于活动状态时，单击“更改图标”按钮。

Because there is no icon associated with the Show Desktop.exe icon we pinned to the Taskbar, we have to select an icon from a different file.

因为没有固定在任务栏上的与Show Desktop.exe图标相关联的图标，所以我们必须从其他文件中选择一个图标。

No worries, though. Windows automatically selects the shell32.dll file in the %SystemRoot%\system32\ folder that contains a lot of icons from which you can choose. Select an icon by clicking on it in the “Select an icon from the list below” box and click the “OK” button.

不用担心。 Windows会自动在%SystemRoot%\system32\文件夹中选择shell32.dll文件，该文件包含许多图标供您选择。 在“从下面的列表中选择一个图标”框中单击以选择一个图标，然后单击“确定”按钮。

Now, click the “OK” button to close the Properties dialog box.

现在，单击“确定”按钮以关闭“属性”对话框。

Initially, the icon may not change on the Show Desktop.exe icon on the Taskbar. However, restarting File (or Windows) Explorer will fix this.

最初，该图标在任务栏上的Show Desktop.exe图标上可能不会更改。 但是， 重新启动文件(或Windows)资源管理器将解决此问题。

Here is the Show Desktop icon on the Taskbar.

这是任务栏上的“显示桌面”图标。

The Show Desktop icon on the far right side of the Taskbar is still available in Windows 7, 8, and 10, even after using one or both of these methods to “move” it.

在Windows 7、8和10中，即使使用这两种方法中的一种或两种“移动”它，任务栏最右侧的“显示桌面”图标仍然可用。
