Sandy, go back to folder options/ file types click on new...type scf into the box 
and then click on advanced.. another box should show you it's association which should 
be Windows Explorer....Okay after you check that...are you sure you are saving the 
showdesktop.scf correctly?? by default it will save as showdesktop.scf.txt...unless 
you look to the next line down from where your inputing the filename and click on 
the down arrow and choose All Files before you save it???
