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?

Hi Anthony

Open File Explorer

On the left click Downloads

Are you able to access that folder and does the file you downloaded exist in that folder?

If so, can you run that file from inside the Downloads folder?

If not, if you move that file to another folder, can you then run that file?
