3d flip? I have the "show desktop" icon on my quick launch. When

I hit that button the web pages would be stacked but for some reason now when
I hit that button it just goes directly to the desktop. It works when I hit
tab+microsoft button but not when I hit the "show desktop" quick launch
button. How can I fix it so when I hit the show desktop button my webpages
are stacked in the 3d flip format? Thanks!

There are two separate buttons on the taskbar. One is "show desktop" which
when clicked does as it is described, it shows the desktop. The other is
called "switch between windows" and that is the one that does the flip 3d
that you are asking about. Make sure you are clicking the right button, it
sounds like you are not. If you don't find it on your quick launch bar you
can copy it from C:\Users\Default\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Internet
Explorer\Quick Launch.

Show Desktop means SHOW DESKTOP
If you want the flip 3-D, view Press the Switch between windows icon
