    Hi Anthony

    Sorry, I was offline . . .

    That registry screenshot shows everything in okay and that there is a downloads folder located in your user folder

    Open File Explorer, navigate to C:\Users in there, you should find your users folder and inside that do you find your downloads folder?

    No download folder in c users!

    Click in the Explorer Address bar & type:

    shell:downloads<Enter>

    That will open your designated Downloadsfolder. It may have acquired another display name.
