Right firstly.
Your saves are located in your (C:\Users\You\Documents\My Games\Skyrim\Saves) Directory.
Now I am going to suspect there has been a glitch in your steam. This has happened to me before on other games. Where my saves just disappear from the game. Except they are still in the directory. Now try virefiing the game files via steam. If that dose not sort it out when you start the game again un install the game and reinstall.
Also you will not be able to open save files manually and theres no need to move them to anywhere else.
