Cornelius,

You probably dragged the images onto another causing them to group. 
Select all the images in the directory and ungroup them to see if the 
reappear.

To select: Ctrl-A
To Ungroup: right-mouse-click, then GROUP > UNGROUP SELECTED

If you do not see this in your context menu then no images are grouped 
and something else is going on.
