Are you sure it is not because it's downloading the file first to /tmp/ 
folder to move it later to some other location?

If you know the name of the file you are searching for, you could try 
searching for it with command:
find /home/ -name nameofthefile

Replace nameofthefile with the actual filename you would like to search 
for. For example game.exe. Also if you don't find anyhting at /home/, 
try some other folder in your root directory (which might require root 
privileges).

What install packet you have used and how did you install it. Uninstall 
and reinstall usually saves the setting files by default, unless you 
give a specific order to destroy them.
