Revo Pro. I emailed the developer. I've NEVER had a problem like this and I've used their program a lot.

Adoby - I saved all the books to the USB drive and it was in a folder called Lost or something. I renamed it Calibre. I opened the Calibre folder in my Document folder where they are stored and cut and pasted them in. Then in Calibre there is on your toolbar Calibre Library. To the right, you click on the Down arrow and it brings you to Library Maintenance. From there you can choose to Restore Database. It overwrites all the books that are in the folder (the ones that I just dropped in there) and updates the Database or what you see when you open Calibre.

It wasn't perfect as I said. All the books are dated today. I saved the log because some books were (maybe) not added since I have deleted a Kindle. Still, that's better than losing 945 books total. I can always download those again since the log told me which ones had the error.

It's the same steps you take if you decide to Format your computer or if you move your Library from one computer to another.

Hope this helps.
