Outlook 2003 Desktop Icon

I'm sure everyone has noticed Outlook 2003 doesn't include a desktop icon. For those who would like to add the icon ( not a shortcut ), try the following :

1. Open the Registry Editor. Navigate to the following key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Desktop\NameSpace

2. Click Edit | Add Key and add the following key:
{00020D75-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}

3. Quit the Registry Editor. Refresh the desktop to see the restored icon. If you still don't see it, try logging off and back on again.

On occasions doing this you may receive errors, try changing the default value under {00020D75-0000-0000-C000-000000000046} to 3.

Another method is grad the Outlook ( Email ) Start menu icon to the desktop -- while the icon has a shortcut arrow on it, right-click on it to reach the Properties menu.
