Hi Kovid,
Ran the Command version (DOS) as suggested - took around 20 hours but that not a problem. The command I used was c\: calibredb restore_database "Really-Do-It"
At end messages were:
Python function terminated unexpectedly
Erno 131 Permission Denied: 'calibre_db_restore_report.txt (error code: 1
Traceback {most recent calls last}
File "site.py", line 32, in main
File "site.py", line 109, in run-entry-point
File "site-package\calibre\librarycli.py" Line 1554 in main
File "site-package\calibre\librarycli.py" Line 1343, in command-restore-database
IOError: (Erno 13) Permission denied: 'calibre_db_restore_report.txt

In the end I had a very large number of books in the "Extra Titles" which I gather means they are in the library but not in database (approc 8,500 books/magazines.pdf files etc)
I have 'Extra Authors" - around 1,400 in addition to above which are in library but not in database.
"Extra book format approx 200 in library but not database

So rebuild (if I did it correctly) did not really work.
Also have a large number of duplicate books over 8,000!!

Something has certainly gone wrong
