Windows 7 How to Quickly Access the Desktop When Multiple Programs Are Open

[Aussie Toni]

Hi all,

I'm just wondering how I quickly get to see my desktop when I have a few programs open? My old system had a desktop icon on the bottom task bar thingie, but this one doesn't appear to have one. (All this minimizing is going to give me RSI)

cheers, Toni

Win key + D OR Win key + Space
Also, Windows 7 has that show desktop button in the bottom right corner.

Thanks zirkoni, found it in the right corner, but I prefer your shortcut keys, never knew about that trick.

cheers
