Hello, Yesterday i finally updated tixati to 2.16. i cant remember what version i was running before because it had been a long time since it was reminding me to update when starting up and i just keep ignoring.

I used to keep all my downloads on the default download folder and after i updated i nociced everything was gone. i searched everywhere in case i had accidentally moved the files somewhere else. looked at the recicler but i couldn't find anything..

Any idea why this happened?

Update has nothing to do with deleting file. you should look what you have done :)
