FYI: I am in the middle of coding/testing a new function to move out of the Calibre library any folders/files that do not appear to belong to Calibre according to the metadata.db database.
This is in effect the converse of the suggested (and already available) method of moving the library to leave behind the potentially garbage files. Its intent is to help with tidying up Calibre libraries that have gathered up superflous folders/files over time or due to operator error. Once the unknown files have been extracted the user can then peruse them to decide what to do with them (if anything). It should be a lot faster than having to move the whole library to separate the good files from the (potentially) bad ones.
If Kovid accepts the changes it should appear in Calibre in the not too distant future.
