No, I think he means the "Show desktop" icon to the right of the
notification area (system tray).

AFAICS there is no way to move it. Maybe a registry hack will do it, but
it's not worth the hassle. If the OP wants a "Show desktop" icon elsewhere,
he'll need to create a separate one. Whether that will end up where he
wants it, and remain there, is another matter entirely... ;-)

So THAT'S what that is. I would say that "icon" is a bit strong...

If you want to show desktop on the bottom left of task bar like vista or xp
then I would recommend that Quick Luanch to Taskbar

I pinned a "Show Desktop" icon to the left side of my taskbar.

I used the icon from Shell32.dll that shows a monitor with the desktop icons visible...

Just like Windoze. It has been on the right for years.
Lets move it to the right and hide it.

You must have been running Server03, or something, then. Then again,
you weren't.

Windows 7 *IS* better.
