Files show at command prompt but not in Explorer

Hm.  Have been using DrivePool for 3+ years pretty successfully.

 

System Win 7 x64 Sp1.

DP ver 2.2.0.651 Beta

No recent system updates (win auto update is off)

No special user permissions on files, and none have the hidden attribute set.

Explorer options are set to show me everything--hidden files, system files, extensions, yadda, yadda

 

I ran the following command in a batch file from a command prompt to move files from a set of subirectories up to their parent;

For /R "Photo" %%F In ("*.jpg") Do If Not Exist "Photo\%%~nxF" move "%%F" "Photo\%%~nxF"

 

I ran this and got log messages saying each file was moved, but when I looked in Explorer, the parent folder is empty (<scared>), nor in the subdirectories.  However, if at a command prompt I do a dir in the parent folder I do see the files.

 

I tried rebooting but that did not make the files appear.

 

Any ideas on how to get the files to appear?

 

I routinely do a lot of file manipulation in both bat files and the GUI and this seems to be the first time this has happened.  Any idea why?  About the only difference here is when I do FOR it is usually not with the /R switch.

 

Cheers,

David
