Question _ before but now a comma

Apologies if this is a duplicate question. Had no idea how to phrase this for a search. I've spent so much time researching already, now just really need the answer because things are really messed up in my library.

1. Just moved library from win 7 pc to win 8 pc without issue.
2. When adding books to library I am getting duplicate author folders in the library due to the way Calibre is handling it.
3. Previous author folders were LN_FN, but the newer Calibre is now formatting as LN, FN which is creating duplicate author folders.
4. Would like to fix it sol that new books added go to LN_FN.
5. Would like to apply this to all books that were incorrectly added.

Any hope? Thanks!

Actually, don't care how the folders created by Calibre look, just need them to be uniform so I don't have duplicate folders.

Anyone, please?

I don't get it.

Never mind. Hopefully this will work. Thank you.

That was copied from the list of Features.

I got it installed, no problem. I have other PIs. My confusion is about which option to use, and if Calibre is going to do what it wants and use LN, FN then it's going to take a long time to fix all the folders from LN_FN. A lot of books so a little scarey to do that and not sure how to go about it.
