Show desktop is easy:

In C:\WINDOWS\Application Data\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch or whatever dir you want it, make an empty text file.

Add the following:

[Shell]
Command=
IconFile=explorer.exe,3
[Taskbar]
Command=ToggleDesktop 

and save it as "ShowDesktop.SCF". Couldn't be simpler.

I have a shutdown icon on my desktop.

Without understanding how it works,
The icons target is this;

C:\WINDOWS\RUNDLL.EXE user.exe,exitwindows

as user.exe and rundll.exe would appear to be common to all pc's with windows installed maybe it will work. But as this is complete guesswork, it may not.

Yeah, then copy it to your desktop and whenever you want to use it, double click it!

Yeah, and why have a "Shutdown" shortcut, but no "Startup" shortcut?

a startup one would be very handy
every time u wanted to power on the machine just double click an icon
