Even Arcsoft Picmail is stored in the same folder and if I go click the thumbnails on the text messages from people that sent me pics, they will open up.
Well today I went to catalog some of my cabs on my storage card and when I click on the cab folder, ITS EMPTY TOO.
Ive tried the basic file explorer which opens up and shows nothing inside and total command wont open and errors out the 2 folders
Anyone have any idea what is going on and how to fix it

Lemme guess, you bought this card off of eBay or some other 'discount' site? If so, you got a fake card. This usually happens with the 'cheap' $4 16GB (insert any size/'brand' here) memory cards.
You usually start losing your file structure once you hit the actual ceiling of the card. The ceiling you see is 'augmented' (much like a porn star) so you and your computer think youre getting more than you actually are.
After buying just ONE fake card off of eBay (the guy didnt know he got duped too and gave full refund no questions asked after i linked him the eBay page) i stick to ONLY buying cards i can physically buy, or from Newegg.com/RadioShack.com. I got my 8GB Kingston from the 'Egg for about $16 i think on sale + free ship, a 4GB Sandisk from Wally World for $20 etc etc etc.
