Desktop desktop desktop
Jul. 3rd, 2012 05:45 pmWindows has many "interesting" features. Often when I have Windows Explorer open for a while, the top of the LHS tree shows not one desktop but several, sometimes dozens, and with a variety of icons. I can "fix" this by closing that Explorer window and opening another.
Googling such a thing is hard, but work was quiet today and I came up with:

Here's a thread with an explanation:

Seems it's the desktop toolbar on the task bar what done it, which is a shame because I don't want to switch that off. Problem might go away when Windows 7 is rolled out at work. That's due in about -1 months. Oh...
