As others said, Downloads folder.

But, if you use Google files app, it's possibly iffy as usual. Sometimes it won't show files when you click on "Downloads" in main menu, but you can navigate to the folder and find the files there. Then rename the file to something else (keeping in mind GFiles is case-insensitive) and rename it back. Now it should finally show up.
Same goes for Google Photos.

In your downloads folder. Just as before. Did you by chance remove it's file permissions? Or mess with the config to swap the folder in the past and now it no longer has permissions?
