(I know I can do this outside of Calibre -- but I understand doing it that way will totally screw things up)
If you have such folders then the library is screwed up anyway. So remove them outside of calibre and then run the Restore Database - that will create a new database from what's left.

Of course, backup the library (in its current screwed up state) first in case anything goes wrong.
