OK...managed to get it back, albeit with hardly any covers or metadata on the books. I thought the metadata.db file was supposed to contain all that. I had copied My Calibre Library onto a USB, so I at least had multiple backups of my titles.
Now that I've completed putting most of the covers, metadata, and series, etc...back onto the Calibre page...if I so something like SAVE TO DISK, will I save EVERYTHING - including all the covers/writeups/series?
In case this weirdness happens again...I'd like to be able to restore everything without spending umpteen hours downloaded covers and metadata?
