What I was suggesting was, in File explorer, paste C:\Users\%UserName%\Downloads into the address bar to go there [entirely independently of what does or does not get shown within ThisPC].
Then right-click on C:\Users\%UserName%\Downloads itself, select Properties, select the Location tab.
Please post the results.

- You have told me about a problem with the Downloads shortcut from amongst the shortcuts-displayed-as-folders in ThisPC.
