How do I set Command+D to 'show desktop' in Adobe Bridge?

I used to quickly see my desktop with Command+D on Mac. 
I don't know how to set this key command in preferences.
Any help would be much appreciated.

Shivani,

 

This the choice a user was given in Bridge 2022 and prior versions when pressing Cm+D

Correct. The first time a user opend Bridge after an update or clean install would present that option when pressing Cmd+D, and that would set that function until the next update or install.

Hi Shivani,

 

The problem is Adobe removed the 'Show desktop' function from the key commands menu. So even though I can select the key 'Command+D' to try and reallocate it, there is now 'Show Desktop' function to associate it with. 

I work with serverl extrenal drives and often need to go between them and my local hard drive. Always having to use breadcrumb navigation is slow and annoying. There used to be a Go to desktop function associated with Command+D in Bridge. Thanks, Chris.
