Add Internet Explorer to the Vista Desktop

For some reason known only to the Windows Vista development team, there is no easy option to add the Windows Explorer icon to the Vista Desktop. You can add Computer, Recycle Bin, and the Control Panel --- perhaps someone can explain that to us. In the meantime, if you want to add Internet Explorer you can do it with a Registry hack. Before editing the Windows Registry it is always advisable to make a backup of the Registry file.
  1. Click the Start button
  2. Open the Run dialog box (or type regedit in to the search box on the Start Menu)
  3. Type in regedit and press Enter
  4. Navigate to the following registry key:
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\HideDesktopIcons\NewStartPanel
  5. Create a new DWORD 32-bit by right clicking in the key area (See Figure K)
  6. Copy this as the key name including the brackets:
    {871C5380-42A0-1069-A2EA-08002B30309D}
  7. Close regedit
  8. Right click on the Desktop and click the Refresh menu entry --- Internet Explorer should now appear.
