According to what you said, calibre should not know where they are right now.

The best way to use the calibre library is to leave it alone and don't change anything, no matter what. In the best-case scenario, calibre would change it back. (If you just changed capitalization, on Windows. You should be so lucky, that that is all you did...)

Use calibre to change the title and stuff. If you want actual files you can move and change and do stuff to by hand, you can export your library using "Save to disk".

Also, before, you mentioned fixing little errors. You would have to open the book in an editor, but fortunately calibre now has one, as of v1.15, so you can pull up the book in calibre and click "T" to edit. There is also a right-click menu option, and a toolbar icon. Though you may have to add it under Preferences ==> Toolbar.
