One is listed as calibrelibrary - e:/dropbox/calibrelibrary

The other is CalibreLibrary - E:/Dropbox/CalibreLibrary

The only difference is the capitalization. The actually directory in Dropbox is capitalized. I did look inside each library and it's the same number of books, the same columns, the same order/sort. My computers are all Windows machines - either WinXP or Win7.

My main question is can I delete one without it affecting the other? If it does delete both and I have to reconnect the library will I still have all of my settings, searches, virtual libraries, etc?
You may delete (remove) ALL quicklinks, (except the one currently in use) safely via the Library Icon Menu.

They are just LINKS that can be reinstated (includes a new path if you move (change the path of) the ENTIRE Library folder (the folder name IS the Library name)
