1. I just downloaded a folder off my Google Drive "Wallpapers". this folder gets zipped and is placed in my Downloads

 

2. I then unzip it into the same Downloads location

 

3. I then copy /(and cut does the same thing) the "Wallpapers" folder and place it into my Pictures folder....

 

4. .........but the folder never shows up 

 

5. if i try to re-paste the folder it asks me to merge the folder that already exists...even though its not visible or accessible

 

only place where i can find the photos from the wallpapers is in the "Photos" App that comes in windows 10

i selected the actual folder initially, which disappears

so then i tried the files instead and pasted them into a new folder under "my pictures" - this worked fine.

 

but when i went to rename the new folder as "wallpapers" it said the folder already exists and asked to merge it

probably just a bug.

 

did you try refreshing the folder page ?
