IconX - Go to Desktop makes IconX go away

from WinCustomize Forums
Okay, so I installed the IconX shareware, but something is extremely annoying: when I click the "go to Desktop" button in the quick launch, IconX goes away, and it shows the normal desktop. Then if I open any window IconX comes back.

Am I missing an option or is this really a missing feature?

Thanks

"Show Desktop" does not minimize anything. What really happens is a full screen, borderless, explorer window, opens on top of everything.

You can use.

Winkey + M to minimize all
Winkey + shift + M to restore all

Or

Copy and paste the following into a text file and save it as ShowDesktop.vbs. Then create a new shortcut linked to this file.

Set Shell = CreateObject ("Shell.Application")
Shell.MinimizeAll
Set Shell = Nothing

 and

Copy and paste the following into a text file and save it as RestoreAll.vbs. Then create a new shortcut linked to this file.

Set Shell = CreateObject ("Shell.Application")
Shell.UndoMinimizeAll
Set Shell = Nothing
