    Up until today I had a Download Icon showing on the Desktop screen. Downloading software from the Net using the Run or Save. A software using the Save, on completion was prior transferred to the New prepared Icon named in this instance as [Downloads]. This has stopped without any warning and Downloads Icon no longer showing. It appears in File Explorer. Due to Memory Loss (mine) just can't remember how this was done before, can anyone help, please.
