I've lost my Photos

Every photo I've ever downloaded was saved to "Photos" on my taskbar but its icon is missing now. Where should I look to get it back? I can still download new photos but where do they go?

Hi, sorry to hear lost pics, since Firefox does not do anything to your Taskbar it would not be Firefox. Sure it was not just a shortcut ?

I would think you got a Windows 10 update which you can check out by going to Update & Security --> View Update History for the date.

You will also find a HTML File possibly with Firefox Logo on it if it is your default browser saying what programs Win10 uninstalled.

Good luck, they maybe there.

Firefox usually would save to your Downloads folder, unless you directed it to use a different folder. If you have recent download history (Ctrl+j) you could use the disk icon on the right side of an entry to open the folder where the image was saved. Is that where they are?

Or were you using an add-on to save images in a custom way?
