Hide desktop.ini from desktop

Simple: click the "hide" box only in Desktop folder
(In Windows Classic view) 
Go to Windows Explorer; click on Desktop. Go to Tools/Folder Options. Click View, and check "Hide protected operating system files" - but, DO NOT CLICK "APPLY TO ALL FOLDERS". Just click OK.
Now, only the Desktop folder will hide the files but they will still show up in all other folders.
