C:\Users\buf\Desktop This is where the "Search" results show where the file is located. I DO NOT see it on my desktop!!!

Well, the file is NOW on my desktop and I haven't any doubt that it was NOT there before I started my thread. Why am I so certain--because I had a designated empty place on my desktop for the file to be found and it was not there. I searched every item on my desktop looking for the file and it simply was not there BEFORE I asked for help. I am as confused as you may be when you read this post.
I still have to wonder what that Search folder is when I use Search on my start menu. I just don't know why items I sometime try to save to my desktop are found there and NOT on the desktop. Computers!!!!!
AH HA. I use the app Fences for my desktop and all of my icons/shortcuts are placed within certain fences on the desktop as determined by the app. Might that have some bearing on what is happening?
