It almost seems like it tries to save it as a pdf, fails, but does not inform me that the save did not work. Dec 12, PM. Dec 12, PM in response to termite In response to termite.
That did save the file as a pdf. Now I'm wondering if the problem is that if I have a file saved as a word document and then try to save another copy with a different name as a pdf if there is some kind of conflict. I have taken the file I'm trying to convert and tried to save it to the desktop instead of where the original is located to make sure it isn't just a location conflict. That file didn't save on the desktop either.
Opened a new word document. Copy-pasted everything from the word doc I am having trouble with to the blank document. Closed the original document. Tried to save the new document as a pdf to the desktop. It did not show up. You have made some changes to apple. You have already re-saved the document as apple.
Saving apple. Maybe rename the file pear. You have the flow of things exactly correct. I've tried the name change, but it doesn't seem to help. That worked. I was able to open it in text edit and save it as a pdf.
So I guess this is a Word issue. Shock and awe. I have no idea why it's not working - I have never brought another document into Word and then saved as PDF but there has to be some bit of formatting in that document that is borking it up.

When I type in downloadmgr nothing appears I saw this solution before and the same thing happened. Are values missing then? Okay this is what happens: I download any file.
If I go to open the download folder the file is there downloading. Now the minute the download finishes, the file disappears from the folder and if I go to the Download window to open it nothing happens and the Right Click, Open, and Open Containing folder options are greyed out. The option to cleanup the downloads folder or to NOT delete the downloads folder?
BTW, I did have a subdirectory inside my downloads folder deleted by disk cleanup once. Lesson learned. Another option. This also applies if you are using a download manager. Excellent suggestions. I downloaded the user manual for my new cell phone to the download folder. It was there for less than a week before it was gone. I found it in my setup folder where I keep the installation files for the apps on my computer.
Good to know even if it is thirty five years or so late. Maybe some of them are still on my computer and nobody knows where Microsoft put them. It will find ,as its name implies, Everything even deleted files. It has many other options for searching. Hope this will help. I never had any idea there was any danger. After reading this article, I emptied the Download folder into another folder. Actually, I should take some time and move those files into more appropriate folders.
Since my old Win 7 machines run with a standard user for everyone and an admin user for me, downloading a file while logged in as admin made it difficult for other users, either on the machine or on the network, to find these files.
Problem solved! I believe it to be number 1 on the list above. But whatever or wherever it is located, I have never lost a file that I downloaded. And, as Leo suggests, if it is an important download, I move it to a separate, distinct folder and back it up! Makes typing these entries into various open and save dialog boxes MUCH easier. Some programs have their own default Downloads folder which is can be changed inside the program. You can move the Downloads or any folder using Windows File Explorer.
This article explains how to move the My Documents folder but it works for any folder. I moved Documents, Downloads, Pictures, Music, and Videos inside the OneDrive folder so all my personal files are synchronized on the cloud and are on all of my computers. I have two Download folders. Other files in my Download folders are installation files for various programs. Never know if I might need or want it.
Everything else I download goes into the appropriate folder. When I set up a new machine, I can often bring over the dozens of programs that the old one used; and in some cases I can use the same setup files used in the original machine.
