Copied that to " D:\ Calibre Library " , a new folder on the "D" drive HD.

Opened Calibre .....no books listed.....on the library tag, clicked the create/switch option.
Small box, showing " Your current library is located at D:\ Calibre Library" with the options beneath.
Entered the location as D:\ Calibre Library , OK ................result is " D:\ Calibre Library is not an existing location "

Stuck now
I am with BR
Navigate to the folder with the browse button. Something is strange (probably the space). I have copied/moved/renamed many library folders.
The only issues is going between OS painful):
