I am missing the Remote Desktop Connection program icon that normally lives in menu Start → Accessories → Communication. I know it's installed though. What is the actual file name for that program?

You're looking for
mstsc.exe

If you want to console into the machine, use
MSTSC /console
or
MSTSC /Admin
depending on what version of Remote Desktop Connection you have installed.

Type mstsc in the run prompt (Windows key + R).

A Windows update (or SP) moved it to (I believe) just the Accessories folder and it has a new icon.

Yes, you are correct. It could be from Windows XP SP2 to Windows XP SP3 (but I only have one datapoint). – Peter Mortensen – 2013-12-10T21:30:07.803
I can confirm that I have RDC in Windows XP SP2. However, I do remember that it was also a non-default application. It had to be specifically installed by the Add new components wizard, using the installation disk. – Doktoro Reichard – 2013-12-10T22:08:39.410
