The Win7 show desktop button has got to be the all time greatest cock up of all time. Don't get me wrong the feature has potential. You just have no control eg. removal if it does not suit. Its a major bugbear for new users or handicapped users. Too easy to click on the button and then need to spend unessessary time explaining what has happened.
Come on Microsoft! At least give us the option to move/remove the feature.

Personally I think it should be in BOTH corners.

I used to view my jpg in vista (picture and fax viewer). I can choose the theme of the slideshow.
but windows 7 allow slideshow only in default mode. no fade in or out effect of other setting that makes the slideshow interesting.
how to have the slideshow setting in windows 7?

I agree,the idea is definitely "genius". It is very easy for left handed people to access the new location, but if you're right handed it is somewhat inconvinient.

Jon:

"I got fed up with it to the point of abandoning it altogether and stuck the show desktop button in a toolbar back on the left where it should be."

Can I ask how you do this?

Thanks

windows 7 ultimate works fine , because is an windows xp sp2 6.1 , 7600 with vista themes
if you don't believe...
check gpedit.msc (this will not work in any vista version)
and see dxdiag command too

Who's brilliant idea was it to *lock* the stupid thing over there on the wrong side?

It's even more difficult when you have a dual monitor setup and can't rely on the right boundary when clicking on it

I got fed up with it to the point of abandoning it altogether and stuck the show desktop button in a toolbar back on the left where it should be.
