add books deletes source files ?
7.0.2.5.

bug. glitch or user error ?

I used add books submenu books from subdirectory option "assume all contents are same book in different formats"

the books were added to calibre library ok but I then noticed that the source folder had been emptied - that had not used to happen ???

UPDATE - it is NOT user error its a bug.

I did 3 tests
1. create a folder called test - add a single epub book to that folder. use add books - OK
2. ditto - but use the option: add books assume all books are the same book option - OK
3. repeat with 2 book formats in the test folder - an epub and a pdf of the same book. this time they both vanished from test folder after the add books options completed
