Gallery downloaded folder deleted?

[manduarirang]

After opening a picture in photos instead of gallery, the "downloads" folder dissappeared. Now if I download any picture it doesn't show up in gallery. Is there any way to get this working again? The same has happened to me with Google Play Music.

Did you've checked in to your PC (connecting the phone to it) if the downloads folder has a .nomedia file on it? this could be the issue.

as a matter of fact it does. Should I just delete that?

Yes. That file tells Android to ignore the folder when it comes to media (pictures, audio, video) files.
