Problem: Files/Folders not showing

:D Hi everyone! Anyone with any ideas of what to do would be very very helpful!

I decided to add some music files to my D:\Jenny\My Music\Downloads folder when I 
noticed that all of my files and folders that are labeled k-z are gone! All of the 
#-J folders are there, but who knows what happened to the k-z files! Anyway, I became 
worried about my itunes program and went to check some of the files that are "missing" 
and they play perfectly! So I assume that the files/folders are still there, yet 
I have no idea how to make them appear. Any ideas? 

ps. I checked the Recycle Bin and I checked "show hidden folders," yet no change. 
I also restarted the computer to only come up with no change.
I then thought that maybe by searching for any of the k-z files/folders I would find 
something, but the search came up with nothing.

Since I have the theory that Windows is just not showing any of my k-z files/folders, 
I tried to save something in my D:\Jenny\My Music\Downloads folder under a name that 
starts with m and it didn't show up. THEN I tried to save something with the letter 
b and it showed up! *sigh* This is getting so frustrating. :(
