    My This PC Download folder is the same and named as Desktop


    It was a few years ago that Downloads and Desktop was its own separate folder, but I don't exactly remember what I did to accidentally sync them. I think I was trying to delete something, but I didn't know how, so I was clicking random things. But anyway, the problem is that they are named the same thing, when I click the Desktop Downloads folder from My PC it takes me to Desktop but shows me the files that are in downloads. But when I click on the actual Desktop folder, it shows me no files, even though I have files visible on my desktop. Could someone please help! Thank you!

    :)
