| VISTA HOME PREMIUM X64/ 7 x64 / 7x86 | Re: Downloading stuff but it disappears Hi, You could try typing the name of the app. you just downloaded into the Start Search box. (After checking start menu properties > customise and ensure search options are set ) Or you might try: Download and install google Chrome browser. Let it transfer settings from your other browser as is. Use chrome to download an app. from the net. Chrome's download window is bottom left - when complete, right click this and select Open File Location - that will take you to where it is. Hope it helps SIW2 |

| Vista Ultimate SP1 x64 | Re: Downloading stuff but it disappears ok, if ur using ie8 this is a known problem. In any case, try creating another user account & see if it happens then. IE8 has a bug where it wont fully download files so they dont appear. |
