If it is truly a copy of the library, the database should be there -- a copy of the old, working database. That is all calibre needs or wants. It should restore you to exactly whatever calibre saw at the time the backup was made.

Can you confirm that there is indeed a metadata.db in the root folder of the backup?

TBH, this is confusing me a TON.

Can you post a screenshot of calibre?
