Are you using XP? If so:

REGEDIT4

[HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionExplorerHideDesktopIc
ons]

[HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionExplorerHideDesktopIc
onsClassicStartMenu]
"{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}"=dword:00000000

[HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionExplorerHideDesktopIc
onsNewStartPanel]
"{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}"=dword:00000000

That last one's from Microsoft itself, so you may want to give it a shot first. (Instructions can be found on the site for what to do with it--search for "registry script" and then scroll down a bit. Note you need to press F5 after trying this to refresh your desktop)

Hope this helps.

Could you have hidden it with Tweak UI ? If so, just check the box in the Desktop section.

All you did was hide it from the desktop, just open Explorer.

It will be right there in the folder pane on the left side.
