Question Choose formats NOT to be deleted
"This will never remove all formats from a book"

Does this mean, if I am deleting all file formats but MOBI from ten selections, if one book in the highlighted selection is only in EPUB format, the EPUB format will not be deleted?

Hope I explained that correctly.

If you say Delete EPUB, it deletes (selected book) EPUB. Period

I'm not sure this answers the question. Copyrite isn't saying "Delete EPUB" copyrite is referring to the dropdown select for remove all but a given format then sees a pop up that makes one wonder. See attached.

Yes, that function will never leave a book without any formats.

Yes, that's how I interpreted what theducks said. And I even tested it to make sure I read that correctly by adding a book in PDF format, selected that line and the next that had an EPUB & TXT format, chose to NOT to delete EPUB, and the PDF-only formatted book was NOT deleted.

Thanks for a great program, Kovid!
