AVD - Upload/Download Folder Missing

Question

We had the ability to Upload/Download Files using the AVD web client. We then installed FSLogix and when we use the upload feature it shows it successfully uploaded the file, but we can't find the file anywhere.

I have tried looking for \\tsclient\Remote Desktop Virtual Drive following suggestions on line the folders are in that redirected virtual drive but that is not showing.

Is there anything we need to configure on FSLogix for the redirected Virtual drive for the Uploads/Downloads folder?
