Have you checked your "Downloads"-folder?

[–] [email protected] 12 points 9 months ago (5 children)

where exactly is the downloads folder?

[–] [email protected] 24 points 9 months ago (5 children)

/storage/emulated/0/Download

that's what total commander told me

For Android, I can recommend CX Filebrowser

I haven't tried that one but FX filebrowser is awesome

Well /storage/emulated/0/ seems to be sort of like a home folder, so it is quite convenient

[–] [email protected] 3 points 8 months ago (1 children)

It's the kind of /home you have when you don't want people to stumble upon it... The kind of place you archive your "homework" in.

Who is this commander and why is he is fucking around with my downloads?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago

We conveniently place that stuff in /home/$USER in Unix-likes. Even have standards to re-define Downloads & co. path.

Guess Google wanted the share-to-app and share-to-cloud like Apple, but rven there users sometimes like s file manager.

Total Commander is a godsend. I don't know how people use Windows or Android without it.

Like the fictional village of Germelshausen, it only appears for a single day every 100 years.

In your phone. Just like how your computer has things in the C drive.

[–] [email protected] 32 points 9 months ago

The files are in the computer?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 9 months ago

I just run Files and the Downloads folder is listed there under Categories.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago

On Android it's in the root folder. So basically if you just open any file explorer app, it should be on the first screen. The equivalent to the "C" drive or "My Computer" on Windows.
