3) Click OK

You end up with a duplicate epub file? What exactly is duplicated? You have two epub files in the book record, with different names? Or something else?
Sorry, it was late last night, and I misread your post. I do not show two epub files in the book record. I show only one epub in Calibre's book record, but I have two epub files in the file system folder. Calibre's book record points to the correct file, but I am left with an additional file that is orphaned in the file system. I will try to provide additional information later today, after I do some testing.
