Taskbar and Desktop Doubles

Hello all-In Windows XP, everytime I drag shortcut icons to my taskbar, it puts an extra on the desktop...when I delete the one on the desktop it deletes the one on the taskbar also.

Also, I can't find the show desktop in xp.

Don’t know if the quick launch bar is what you are looking for or not, but right click on the taskbar and then to properties and put a check in the “show quick launch”. The show desktop shortcut is in the quick launch bar.

HTH

A quick keyboard shortcut for showing the desktop is WinKey+D. It is one of the few WinKey shortcuts I use regularly.
