Default Downloads
I cant find it anywhere. Where do I return downloads to its default of downloads. Win 1903 changed my to 'pictures' - I want downloads back.

If your Pictures folder (or another) opens when you type shell:downloads in the Address bar of Explorer, then the folder has been redirected & you need to restore it's default location. You can use the tutorial:

I was a bit premature, Keith, I must have done something wrong, it still downloads to pictures
Sorry Tomcat, dont forget diff times zones too. OK, went into Vivaldi and found it in settings, still dont understand why it changed by itslef after 1903 went in. Going to check opera now, standby browser. Thanks you all for your sterling assistance.
Opera did not change settings.
If you ever ticked "Update default location when choosing save as location" then it might move your downloads to the last used folder by default.
My personal preference is to choose save location for every download.
