The Book of Exodus says that the Ten Commandments were carved onto stone during the forty years the Hebrew people wandered in the desert after leaving Egypt. On this evidence, the Commandments would not be in Egypt.

Over 90 per cent of scholars are reported as believing that the Exodus described in The Bible never really happened. On this evidence, there never were Ten Commandments given to Moses on stone. Thus the Commandments could not be in Egypt or anywhere else. They exist in the Bible narrative, not on stone.
