This sort of frustrating thing is exactly why it makes sense to take charge of the file copying process. When you let the camera do what it wants you often have a less than clear idea of where everything is. And then too, whenever you change or upgrade post processing programs, or you upgrade Windows, or you run out of room on your hard drive and need to start using external hard drives for storage, or you want to start backing up your images, or etc, etc, etc, the automatic uploading process may suddenly stop working, or you may suddenly realize you don't know what the computer has been doing or where the images are.
The simplest thing is to take charge of the upload process. Use a card reader instead of connecting the camera to the computer. Make a file where you want all your images to be. Everytime you upload a new card full of image files, you make a new sub folder in that file for those shots. It helps to use a date and description to name each file. Like "2016-09-03; Labor Day picnic images" or whatever. In File Manager open the new file in one window. Open your card reader in another window. Highlight all the image files in the card. Drag and drop the files from the card into the new hard drive file. Voila.
This has the added benefits of 1.) a faster transfer rate, and 2.) not running your camera battery down while doing the transfer.

Why do so many people say "FER-tographer"? Do they take "fertographs"?
