The instructions that came with my Olympus camera (C720 -- several years old) said specifically not to delete images in windows, only from the camera. FWIW.

When/if I retrieve my pictures, I'll try that. I'm wondering if I screwed up the formatting by deleting the pictures using Windows Explorer, rather than the camera's delete button. I did try a different SM card with no positive results, and will try again. My friend (Google) sent me to Microsoft, and they suggest using Camedia software, which I'll try when I get a moment.
