Saved Searches Lost
I just recently upgraded to Calibre 3.39.1 and lost all my saved searches, which, unfortunately, I hadn't backed up in over a year. I am, however, diligent about backing up the whole database, so I thought I could swap out the db file and metadata_db_prefs_backup.json from the back up, open the saved searches and export it. Then I would copy the current db file back and reimport the saved searches json file. But there were no saved searches when I opened the editor.
So, my question is, where are the saved searches stored, if not somewhere in these files? Hope Someone Can Help, Jeff |

In the global preferences folder which you can open via
The question is, where did they go, and is it just saved searches that have gone awol, there's zillions of other things in that folder BR |
