I recently downloaded a couple of large .zip files, and saved them directly to my desktop instead of into a more "normal" folder. I've never done that before, and the reasons that I saved to the desktop this time is immaterial.

The problem is, when I went into Nero Express to make a data CD that would include these two .zip files on my desktop, Nero apparently couldn't or wouldn't see them! I mean, it was - from Nero's interface - as though the files didn't exist in that location at all! They were not hidden, system, or other unusual attribute, and once I had extracted the files into another folder, I was (of course) able to get my backup burned.

But... why in the WORLD would Nero be unable/unwilling to see/backup two .zip files from the desktop? Am I overlooking something really obvious here?
