I find that the Tag browser is by far the easiest way to fix author issues. If you find any entry there that does not look correct you can change either the author or author_sort field and tha change is applied to all linked books. I find that much easier than finding individual books and correcting them. However before embarking on that exercise I would ensure that the tweak for deriving author_sort from author is set correctly as it is quite likely you will want that change made in bulk.

I actually came back tonight to find out about backing up the library, as doing a Windows Copy keeps failing after a few folders. Trying to find a method that doesn't take all night or crash in the middle.

A windows copy should NEVER crash. You will probably need to get to the bottom of why that is happening if you want to get any sort of reliable backup of your Calibre library.
Having said that there are better tools than Windows copy for making backups. If you use something like RichCopy then it can be set to only copy changed files which should make things significantly faster as I would expect the vast majority of your calibre library rarely changes. Even if copying all files RichCopy is faster than Windows copy.
