There is no 'missing' status for the repository. You must mean working
copy. Please try to be clearer.

Most likely you removed it using a normal windows delete rather than using
Subversion/TSVN. That would mark the item as missing in the working copy
(because subversion knows it should be there but the physical file/folder
is not present).

Try using 'revert' to get back the missing directory first. If it is
already deleted in the repository then simply updating your working copy
will make it go away properly. If it is not deleted in the repo and you
want to delete it then use TSVN->Delete to get rid of it and commit the
change.
