Incidentally to find all books with no format files search for formats:false

Thanks for that tip. Once you conduct that search is there a way to get all of them to group together? It appears that there are far more than I thought but I have no idea how many. Based on the advice here it seems that I am looking at spending a lot of time trying to sort this out.

What if I went through the library folder, delete all the empty folders, uninstall Calibre then re-install it and point it at that folder?
