Recordered files downloaded via Firefox or IE are not visible under Win 7

[Alian]

Hi,

 

I have already post this query in French. As I got no answer, I post it again in English. I have bought two weeks ago a new PC (OS: Windows 7 Home premium, service pack 1). When I want to upgrade a program or download a pdf file via the navigator( Firefox or IE), windows explorer does'nt show the downloaded files: so I can't do anything. If I try again to record theses files via the navigator, windows explorer shows me these files and asks to me if I want to replace the old file by the new. Now if I leave the navigator and come back to windows explorer, the recorded files are again invisible. I never encountered this problem under Win XP Pro on my old PC.

As I'm novice with Win 7, I need help !

Thanks for your answers.

Hi Alian!

 

The default download folder should be in C:\Users\YOUR-USERNAME\Downloads

You should be able to see your downloaded files, when your BROWSER MSIE 10 (microsoft internet explorer 10.0) is opened, clicking ctrl + j and the download window will appear.

Or click tools menu, show downloads.

Or click the cogwheel located at top-right corner, click show downloads.

 

 

Hope this helps!

Hi Xilolee,

 

Many thanks for your answer ! In fact, I was running IE or Firefox in the sandbox (Comodo Internet Security) and in that case I can't write on the HDD. All is okay when running the navigators out of the sandbox.
