My concern is either Calibre should handle all ARCHIVES or NONE of them. Is there a way to make it do that.

Let me clarify. I have a Main Folder E-books.

Under it I've organized things in different folders etc.

Some of them have Archives with Single Books (that I CHOOSE TO extract) and a lot of them have Archives with Multiple Books (which I will HAVE TO selectively extract).

I dont want to move the ARCHIVES or their EXTRACTED books away from their PARENT FOLDERS.

When these PARENT folders are added to Calibre, it would automatically EXPLORE the ARCHIVES (M & S) and then include the Singles Archives and leave the Multiples Archives? - Is that assumption correct?
What happens when an archive contains both a .epub and ..mobi of the same book?

I want to add the E-book folder to the Calibre where I want it to pretty much IGNORE all ARCHIVES (M or S), So I can handle the ARCHIVES and EXTRACTION "manually", at the same time LETTING the ARCHIVES be where they are.

I do not want to be in a situation where I have to figure out which ARCHIVES are being HANDLED and Books being extracted by Calibre automatically and which ones, I have to HANDLE and extract manually / Also, eliminate duplication & overlap between AUTOMATIC and MANUAL extractions.
