Never use your computer when you are sleepy. Period.

I woke up this morning and I immediately saw my pc with some Internet Explorer windows open so I immediately sat down and tried to delete the cookies and form data from machine but instead of deleting the cache I accidentally deleted the IE icon in my desktop.

Anyway, I need to restore it and found this link that show you how you can do it.

Basically, all you need to do is run regedit.exe

Navigate to: HKEY_CURRENT_USER \ Software \ Microsoft \ Windows \ CurrentVersion \ Explorer \ HideDesktopIcons \ NewStartPanel

and change the value of the key {871C5380-42A0-1069-A2EA-08002B30309D} to 0

And that should do the trick ;)

Note to self: Never use the computer when you are sleepy.
