Manually added images have vanished since update 4.6.2.0

Since my server has updated to version 4.6.2.0 all the manually added images have disappeared. Is there any way to recover them or will I have to add them manually once more?

Hi, can you be a bit more specific what types of images these are?

They are all the jpg's that I have manually added as primary images for all tv shows, movies, audiobooks, and album covers where they could not be identified via the databases. Cheers

Where do you have these graphic files stored?  Are they sitting in the folders with the media?

I think i understand now. I have been adding images to each media and then deleting them. The 'stored' image is then merely the cached image and so when updating the cache is cleared. When adding images to the media I should be adding them to each individual media folder or a specified media folder in future?

I can't really answer that as I'm not exactly sure what type of images you have replaced or how you replaced them.

Can you be more specific in what you are trying to do and what images you are replacing?

That is what I do, rename each to fit like "primary" & "backdrop" hope this helps.
