I know, and I already did to help you with your case. Please tell us in
which folder the now deleted .svn sub-folder was.

The problem isn't TortoiseSVN, it's the subversion library below. It is
nevertheless really easy to fix, but not by moving folders around. Now,
if you told us, from which folder the .svn sub-folder was deleted, this
would be easy to describe, but now I have to resort to a more
complicated description:
Did you move the directory the .svn subdirectory was deleted from back
to it's original place? Good. Now it should display the exclamation icon
overlay. Rename the obstructed folder, e.g. append '_', so TortoiseSVN
doesn't recognize it as part of the working copy. The folder with the
missing .svn subdirectory should now be reported 'missing' in the
check-for-modifications dialog.
Now you can safely cleanup and update. Updating should recreate the
'missing' directory. After that you can copy the .svn-directory to the
original directory.
A final word of warning: The cleanest way is to checkout a fresh working
copy and to move everything from your original working copy there.
