I know where the desktop folder is, but the that is not the the question.
When you create a link to the desktop folder all you will see is the <contents> of the folder. i.e. a list of files, folders and shortcuts.
Want I want to do is go to the "real" desktop not the folder. i.e. what you see when you start up Windows.
In the Windows Quick Launch Bar clicking the desktop icon takes you to the "real" desktop.
In TLB clicking the desktop folder icon takes you to the desktop folder. Same thing, different "view"
So how, in TLB, can I get to the "real" desktop?
Phew, wish I a bit more technically savvy so that I could explain myself better.
