If the original source file is also deleted?
If not, how do I find them, to delete them also, since they have different descriptions?


Thanks in advance

The Library is only the Library.
Once the import has completed (or the edit metadata window if that was where you were adding formats/covers) closes. the library disconnects from the source file

.

Only use the 'delete' inside the Library GUI to remove books or formats so as to maintain the integrity of the DB.
Never use the OS to delete or rename Library books or folders.
