Here is Calibre companion's FAQ.

Not correct. Quoted from the FAQ:

Calibre Companion does not look in folders other than the ones for formats/extensions selected in its "Book formats and folders" dialog. CC also looks only for the formats that it is willing to put in that folder. For example, If mobi and epub files are going into two different folders, CC will not scan for .mobi files in the epub folder and vice versa. If you are in this situation then you should either combine the folders or move the books to the right folder.
Calibre companion (CC) only scans folders identified in the Book formats and folders section of the CC settings. Go to this setting and change ePub books to the directory books and all of your epubs will be moved to the books directory. Do the same for any other format until you have all of the books in the folder you want.

A more detailed set of instructions can be found in the FAQ here.
