I recently ran into a problem with Calibre. Whenever I click on Edit Metadata, it freezes completely, and I have to kill Calibre with Task Manager. I can no longer edit metadata without it freezing up. Kovid suggested rebuilding the database. I did that (took over 30 hours) and the problem still exists. Can I delete the database, it's backups, and rescan all my books to create a new database? What is the best method of doing this? What files should I delete?
