Some of my AOL customers used to download to the Desktop. It would help if you knew the name of the file, so you could do a Windows search for it. &nbsp;It's been a long time since I used AOL, but as I recall, there was a menu option somewhere for Download Manager, which keeps track of the file names and locations for all downloads the customer does. &nbsp;Try that.

Don't Microsoft Windows Updates usually automatically install themselves, rather than just download for your later install? &nbsp;Are you sure that wasn't what happened?

On a clients desktop Compaq 5070 I noticed that her Windows Version was the very first(and ultra bug-prone) original Win98 from 1998. She is using AOL as her ISP.<br />
Fine, so I went to Windows Update, and scrolling down I found a file to dowload which apparently is specific to Compaq for Win98 Upgrades.<br />
Functioned the download.<br />
Now I can't find it to activate. I looked under AOL/Downloads, not there to my knowledge. Any clues?<br />
Note: I will not have access to her system again until late Sunday, so I cannot provide more detailed info if requested until then.<br />
<br />
Thanks.
