Suggestion copy the library to a new library keeping current settings, then remove all books from the original library, check the old library with file manager, any folders books left in the old library need to be checked to see if they where copied over to the new.

Make backups before you start.

P.S.

I just copied my library from my mint 17 pc to a windows 10 tablet.

Thanks! I had just taken what was in the default repository, which appears to be pretty old, LoL.

Anyway, I thought it would simply update my current setup, but it gave me a whole new install. I have a pretty complicated setup/layout so would like to use my original config files, if that install link in your post didn't wipe it out! I backed out of the setup as soon as I saw the Wizard come up...

Can I still copy over the old config files or are they probably gone? What dir are they in in Linux?
