Lost Download folder.

**Oliver Persen** · 03-22-2013, 06:09 AM

I changed the name of the "Download" folder to ".Download" and now i can not find it anywhere on my phone. I had hours of movies on it, and i want to know if there is a way to get back the folder with its content.

Have you tried rebooting your phone... shut your phone off and turn it back on?

Or try downloading ES File Explorer and use it to search for it.

By changing the name to .download you have effectively made that folder a system folder. You will have to use a file manager like es file manager. Then you will need to tell it to make available the system files as writable. Now you should he able to find the folder and change the name back. Hope that helps.
