Several answers depend completely on what OS you are running - Windows or Mac, and if Mac Lion or earlier.
If you have earlier saved a custom Work Environment Palette Scheme for the way you like your desktop, simply open the WE, select your scheme name and click Apply.
If you don't have a lot of other palettes that you care about, do the same but click on the AC Standard scheme, click Apply and reconfigure things to your liking ... and THEN go back and save this as a named scheme (and export it) so that you never have to do this again.
