In Finder is Downloads folder, but the downloads i have, have disappeared, although they show in Chrome Downloads on the Chrome browser.
Chrome Version 112.0.5615.39 (Official Build) beta (x86_64)
MacOS Monterey 12.6.3 Macbook Air

What is the folder you have designated as the folder for Chrome to use?
In Safari, that pref is in Safari Prefs->General->"File download location:". (1st/top image)
Does Chrome have a helpful "Show in Finder" function in each item in its download list? (2nd/bottom image)
Have you downloaded the outstanding and highly recommended "Find Any App"? You could quickly use it to search for "images" created in the "last 5 minutes", for example. :clap: And, since you can see the names of the files, you can even use Finder or Spotlight. :toothgrin:

In Finder, using File > Find gives me better results than Spotlight. And, the app that Jim cited is https://findanyfile.app/index.php

Thank you Xairbusdriver - following your advice re Chrome - it is now sorted. :clap:
-
Thank you jchuzi for your link and info, gratefully received.

Another good app is EasyFind (https://easyfind.en.softonic.com/mac). It complements FindAnyFile: Sometimes, a file that one misses the other finds. And, the price is right. :D

Thank you :thumbup: it would be nice if you all shared apps together....
