Quick Launch file location? My quick launch has lost it's way

I think I inadvertently dragged the quick launch folder to the desktop.
Now the quick launch does not work. and I have left it on the desktop
wishing I could drag into it's correct pathway so that it will work again.
Anybody know where it shoud go?

Into the user folder perhaps

Thanks

Dave

RE: Quick Launch file location? My quick launch has lost it's way

still nothing. I re-booted twice

I still have a quick Launch folder on my desk top.
My taskbar is unlocked.
I've tried "Show Quick Launch" from the properties dialog box
It's a read only.
Just can't get those icons on the right side next to the start menu on my
vita home premium desktop
Bummer

Thanks again

Try using a recent 'System Restore' point, if you've got one handy.

Start > System Restore > Click on the link and choose the most recent point.
