Hi Dru glad you made it over here to the new forum.

First your viewing problem.
What I think has happened is that you have made a Shortcut to the files rather than actually copying them to your laptop.
So what you need to do is delete all those short cuts on the laptop or copy all the files from the camera card to your laptop drive. The easiest way to do this is to open in file explorer, select all the image files then do a Ctrl+C. Then go to where you want to store them on your laptop again in File Explorer. When you are in the right directory do a Ctrl+V. This will pate the files there. When the copy has finished (it may warn you that the files exist there already if so say OK as this will overwrite the shortcuts).
When that is done and you can view the files successfully on your PC without the camera being attached go and delete the files from the camera card.

BTW. In you camera custom settings you need to have the setting called File No. Seq set to ON
