I do this shit for a living. Unless you were actively doing file moves then explorer crashing didn't cause the data loss.
You really need to do a health check on your drive(s), and you can install Teracopy for faster file move operations that aren't reliant on explorer staying up.
I'm glad you think you know what happened. I'm happy to say you don't. I'm also not going to bother replying as the whole point of my original post is that it happened and I no longer use Windows.
For what it's worth I too do this for a living :)
