Wasnt sure exactly where to place this, so I thought this would be the best.
I'm currently running build 5728 with a backup boot of RC1. While in 5728 I
downloaded CR2 from the Microsoft website, and the download completed. When
the download completed the icon disappeared from my Desktop (where I saved
it) and I have not been able to find/recover it. The space is taken up, if I
try to download again to the same location it asks if I would like to
overwrite the file. I've searched both partitions as well as using the finder
and nothing comes up. I even tried command line. Alas I'm now re-downloading
the file on my XP machine.

Can you clarify what your suggestion to Microsoft is? I
have read this several times and I can't figure it out.

As for your downloaded file disappearing, I have seen it
posted before that it would become visible by changing the
options for the Windows Explorer to show certain files, but
I don't remember exactly what. Basically the problem is
caused by the default settings and you can't see the file
with the settings as they are.

It was supposed to be a general comment. I had to enter this 3 times to get
it to post.

So, what is the purpose of the link to send a suggestion to
Microsoft for?

What would someone agree to?
