    Why are my downloads not in downloads? Only place they can be found


    All of a sudden, anything I download can not be found in downloads. The only place they can be found is in One Drive or Quick Access.I normally download pictures from various sources on the internet and upload them to my blog, etc, and these could always be found in downloads until lately! I can only find them in One Drive or Quick Access which is making things very difficult.I have a terabyte of hard drive storage left but my One Drive storage is at 91% unless I want to purchase more?!

    Something wrong with downloads?

    maybe list the specific file you are trying to download. I also just grabbed a download with no issues, and good speed.

    Thanks all for the useful suggestions, i certainly can understand the idea of refreshing downloads. I wish Firefox had that little button lol. Now i'll try and download Warrock (a great FREE game) with download manager though (annoyingly) firefox is now downloading without buggering up!
    I just did a few spyware scans which though didn't stop the probs it probably did stop all thoses bloody programs from using the internet and slowing it down.

    Downloaded files disappear


    When you download a file through any browser, there's an option somewhere to 'Open Containing Folder.'

    In Windows, to find a file you have downloaded...

    1. Open your personal folder by clicking the Start button and then clicking your user name at the top of the Start menu's right pane.
    2. Double-click one of the following folders:
      • Downloads
      • Documents
      • Pictures
      • Videos
      • Music


    If you do not see the file you are looking for, but know its file name, you can search for it by following these steps:
    To search for a file you have downloaded...

    1. Click the Start button
    2. Type all or part of the file name into the Search box.
      The file you are looking for will appear in the list of results.
