@TeDeumLaudamus - firstly welcome to Mobileread

At a guess it appears something is awry with the file i/o. That "Deleted Wilbur Smith jubjbsdr" folder is probably a remnant of deleting an Author Folder, they're normally cleaned up toot sweet. The fact it wasn't leads me to ask - are you doing anything out of the ordinary with respect to the file system - e.g. not using NTFS, disabled the Recycle Bin etc ???.

Which version (latest is 2.26) and flavour (32bit or 64bit) of calibre are you using and is it installed into the 'normal' location.

Maybe you could you start calibre, hit 'Ctrl/Shift/R' (this will restart calibre in 'debug mode'), click through the message and quit calibre - that should pop a text editor window which you could you could cut/paste here. It'll look something like this

Spoiler:
Code:

@otherguys - give the OP a break, he's a new user of calibre, and this is his first post in the MR Calibre forum
