Here's my desktop.ini file from the Downloads folder. Maybe you can just copy this into your Downloads folder and reboot.

[EDIT] I hope I'm not violating any rules by posting this... It's just a few lines of text.
Please remove if it's against the forum rules. Thanks!

Didn't work either.

The first shows what the folder use to look like.
Second one is what it looks like now.

I'm starting to think a program may be at play here, but the fact that it fixed itself before has me baffled.

I'm looking into getting a another hard drive, since this one makes too much noise. So, I guess I'll deal with it for now, but still by all means if someone knows a another way to correct it, please feel free to share.

Thanks.
