How to fix the download arrow. Won't show me recent downloads even though I would have downloaded a file. Help please.

more options

I recently downloaded a zip file and when I unzipped the file my arrow stopped showing me recent downloads. It will show the effect of me clicking but won't show any files that I may have recently downloaded. Please help as this is the fastest way for me to do my schooling and work when I am given documents.

It won't even show that........scratch that it just now started to work. I restarted my pc to uninstall some programs so that may have done the trick.

If the list attached to the arrow is cleared, does the link "Show All Downloads" appear and let you view the earlier downloads? The keyboard shortcut for that is Ctrl+j if you are a keyboard person.
