Where are my "download" and "navigator" folders gone ?
"Or is it MFN wich marked them as hidden" - Yes. MFN mark the files as hidden. And the restrictions came with Android 10. You can make a backup and replace the backup files with your old files and then make a restore.

The files are invisible due to restrictions imposed by Google and because MFN insists on adhering to Google's rules by an absolute 200%.
