Calibre 0.7.58 Wrong format displayed

The formats field displays all kind of formats that I don't have. I have all my books in Epub and Lit but Calibre raves on about Mobi, Pdf, TXT and even Zip.

Probably somehow remembering the original format that I got rid of.

Cheers

you went and deleted them from the Calibre Library folder .

Read the sticky: https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...54&postcount=1 on why you should not mess(up) around there.

Now you need to repair the damage you caused.
On the Library Icon, little arrow: Library Maintenance; Check Library.
Also Run the second part. That will report errors that you can choose to fix.


BTW the proper way to delete a format is to :
1) open the Metadata editor and Select the format, then click delete
2) Right click the title in Library View: Remove Books: (choose which way)
3)Use the Remove book little arrow menu on the toolbar
