Out of interest copy the following blue text: %userprofile% – and then open any File Explorer window. Left click the Address Bar, then right click the highlighted path then paste what you had copied. Now press the Enter key.


Right click the Downloads folder, then click Properties, you may need to scroll down.
In the open dialog box, click the Location tab.
What is showing in the location path?
