I have the exact same issue and can't seem to find much info.
When I choose Tools...View Downloads or Ctrl + J I get nothing.
I've tried resetting IE & Deleting Download History. After deleting the download history and restarting IE9 I am then able to open the Download Manager via View Downloads. However, the very next time I try to download something I get nothing. Download manager then wont open via Ctrl + J or by using the menu.
exact same problem - any luck?

hey guys i found this, it works for me
You may have a corrupted Download History list. You can fix this by simply clearing the list using the built in functionality listed below:
- Open Internet Explorer
- Press Ctrl + Shift + Del on your keyboard
- Uncheck all of the boxes that are displayed in this window
- Check the Download History box
- Click Delete
- Close the Internet Explorer window
- Wait for the deletion process to finish
- Open Internet Explorer
took me forever to jumping thru hoops just to get back here and tell you - this worked!!!!! I'd tryed all sorts of things, but Ctrl Shift Del then unchecking almost everything (I kept the favorites option at the top), checked Download history and delete. I rebooted to be safe,,, andyay! downloads are back!!! Thank you bencosmea!
Thanks bencosmea! I have been facing this problem and was searching for solution by hook or crook as dont want to give up. Your small trick solved my big problem!
