Exit Calibre.
Copy the WHOLE Calibre Library folder to backup media.
This includes all the folders with books and other files and the metadata.db file.
When you restore, first delete (or rename) the Calibre Library in use, before you copy back the WHOLE backup Calibre Library from backup media.
Treat the whole Calibre Library as a single item, don't backup or restore parts of it.
