I'm glad. The failure scenario I envisaged didn't seem likely anyway.

My current problem is an easy fix. I'm more interested in knowing if there's something I should be doing or not doing to avoid this sort of problem in the future.
Taking another tack on an area of the code I know about, is it likely that the leftovers previously were involved in a Merge operation?

I'm thinking of cases where you might be checking books before a Merge: a book might be open in a reader (perhaps to check contents) then the record for that book is Merged into another record - or Windows has the source folder open (perhaps by clicking the Open folder button or using "O"). In both cases, Calibre would be unable to delete the folder and leave it hanging around. DB integrity checks would show nothing and all would appear correct during use, but the leftover folder/files would remain after a library Move.
