Sure, I agree that on a rare occasion it's *possible* that it could happen,
just because I've never heard of it, doesn't make it so. :) But I would
think that folders on the desktop would be vulnerable, whereas My Pictures
folder would not...at least not from S.R.
But, now that I re-read the OP, it seems the pictures are gone, not the
folder.

And, if in fact, it was S.R., the OP can try to undue the last restore.
