Yes, I tried again and all has worked normal too (after the once only
cache restart).

What I thought I should do is more precisely describe how the problem
manifested itself because there is a clue embedded therein.

What I had been doing at the time when I noticed the problem was going
through various project folders deleting auto generated files before
committing some project changes.
It was on navigation back out of a folder high in the directory
structure that a folder containing correctly displayed changed files
reverted to the incorrect (unmodified) icon state.
The incorrectly displayed folder was accompanied two others, correctly
displayed, one showing modified the other unmodified.
Reversing out of that folder back to the branched level revealed an
unmodified status whereas it should have been modified..
Reversing further out showed the unmodified status had propagated
backwards to the project root.
I had the whole project checked out, not just a high level WC.
Once the error had occurred, no amount of navigating and F5-ing would
fix the problem.
I don't use the two pane view in Explorer.

So, it appears that the unupdated status has propagated back towards the
WC root regardless of there being another folder in the directory
structure correctly displaying the modified status.

Sorry to have been the bearer of unwelcome news but maybe better from
one who doesn't complain (too much) and just tries to report facts.
