My OSX is Simplified Chinese, so the user folders in finder's sidebar is like this:

AirDrop
????
??
??
??
??
??
??

These stand for AirDrop, Applications, Desktop, Documents, Downloads, Movies, Musics and Pictures.

However, now with an accident, my "Downloads" folders in sidebar is changed to its original english name, and I don't why, so my sidebar is now look like:

AirDrop
????
??
??
Downloads
??
??
??

I know do symbol link to these folders would cause such case but I cannot find any symbol links to my ~/Downloads folder.

So is there any way to get the Chinese name back? it looks so weired and dirty.

I have a time machine backup 3 days ago, but I have quite a lot modifications to my user folder these 3 days, so time machine may not be a good choice.
