Actually, I'm starting to suspect that something else may be the cause. I use allway synch, to back up my laptop, and I'm wondering if some glitch caused all my deleted files to reappear.
eltrkbrd - I ran that as suggested, and it found errors. I'm a little skeered to give it cart blanch to fix the errors, as I don't want my deletes repopulating.
RE: windows explorer, I'm not really using it to edit (ex. names or file structure) - I'm just using it to delete files that I know I have deleted (they don't show in calibre). I'm also going through manually to reconcile folders. For example, I have a folder of James Patterson books and I also have a folder of Patterson, James. It's the latter I want.
I guess there is no such thing as a quick fix, but I will read the threads you referenced.
thanks for your help.
I've disabled allway synch just in case this is the cause of the problem
