Downloads from gmail

I received a group of pictures as attachments to a Gmail message. When I clicked on the choice of "download", it seemed to do it, but I have searched and am unable to find where they are located. Any help in where Gmail downloads to would be appreciated.

The only file I could find in "default users" downloads that might possibly be those pictures is an RRR file that corresponds to the date I downloaded, but am unable to open it????

If you click on the "Download all attachments" link to download all images, Gmail will zip all the images to an "attachments.zip" file with all the images in it.

I searched my entire hard drive for "attachments.zip" but was unable to find such a file. Should it be within GMail, or in zip files. Thanks for the answer.

I've come to use Everything to find things Windows does not. Very fast and easy to use.

If you clicked on the link above the attachments, then all the attachments will be downloaded as a zip file with the name 'attachments.zip' (if there is no subject) or '<EmailSubjectWithoutSpaces>.zip'. It should be in your Downloads folder by default.

OR

If you can't find it, you could just download the images again
