• Accidentally deleted the Downloads folder, a windows “Special Folder”, how to restore? 6 answers

Change default Downloads Folder in Windows 10. If you want to change default downloads folder location in Windows 10 at the system level follow the steps below: Open Windows File Explorer and right-click on Download available in the left tree. Now context menu will appear to choose Properties from the menu.

I've changed my Downloads folder location to D:TestDownloads. Then I accidentally set the Desktop folder to D:Test.

After getting it back to C:UsersMyNameDesktop, the D:TestDownloads is not marked as a user folder anymore, meaning that at properties, the Location option is not more available.

Trying to get it back, I've created a folder named Downloads at C:UsersMyNameDownloads, but it also does not have the Location option.

When I run (Windows+R) shell:Downloads, windows cannot find it.

OS: Windows 7 x64 Pro.

You'll need to point the Downloads library link back to D:TestDownloads.

You can do that through Right Click > Properties then selecting the Location tab.

• Restore - This will set the path back to default, as you see in the screenshot.
• Move... - This opens a window that will let you choose a new location for the downloads directory.
• Find Target... - This will open the directory where the currently set Downloads folder resides. In the example below: C:UsersMichael

Note: You can only get to the 'correct' Downloads properties by entering from the UsersUsername folder directly. See the screenshot below:

If the above method doesn't work or the Location tab is completely gone, and you're not just looking in the wrong place. You may need to reset the Download folders registry link.
