NA

Photos I have downloaded,(I know they have downloaded because their file name is in the task bar) I cannot find on my computer.
I have been doing this forever and an reasonably well versed in knowing where I save them too and to look for them. I also tried download folder to no avail. Where could they be going?
Most of you would know I have a restoring site on Facebook and download and up load photos from there. Even after downloading them 2 , 3 times I cannot find one version. What could be happening?
Ps. I tried from another site and I could find the photo I downloaded

Says ( When I did a search for todays files) their in the place where I thought they were but Gimp cannot find them. Nothing since 8 hours ago

By the way I have closed and restarted gimp

Can you run sfc /scannow in Command Prompt as Administrator,
to see if it finds anything?

Edit: Could also be a web browser issue.
Do you have the latest version of the browser you're use?

Also,
I would check to see if there are any Windows updates available,
if you haven't done this already.

A good tool for checking for Windows updates is...
Windows Update MiniTool,
or WUMT for short.
It's an alternative to Windows Update.

Windows Update MiniTool @ MajorGeeks.Com

When you download a file.
Right click on it within your browser and select Show in folder,
or something like that,
depending on the browser you're using.
