    Did you look in the Recycle Bin.
    If you deleted the shortcut by mistake, look there and try to restore it.

    Hello Shoe,

    If you navigate to C:\Users\(user-name) and open the folder, does it still have your Downloads folder in it?

    If not, then you can try OPTION TWO in the tutorial below to restore it.

    User Folders - Restore Default Location

    Hope this helps,
    Shawn

    If your Downloads folder is in your C:\Users\(user-name) folder, then it's already in the default location.
