@alternety - I get the feeling that you might be over-thinking things.

If there's no metadata.db file in the said folder, then by definition its not a calibre library, its the presence of the metadata.db file that 'defines' the folder as a valid calibre library.

If the library with it's metadata.db file is still on the boot drive then use calibre's Library->Switch/Create->Move current library to new location feature - eg the following would move the library at D:\Calibre Libraries\_Main to G:\Somewhere

Calibre plugins are zip files, you don't have to do anything other than install them. Most PI's are here ar MobileRead ==>> Calibre Plugins @ Mobileread. There's a sticky thread with an index at the top of that sub-forum. You can get the PI's you see there there via Preferences->Plugins->Get New plugins.

The DeDRM PI is an exception, it must be installed installed manually via Preferences->Plugins->Load plugin from file, just browse to the zip file you downloaded and press OK.
