Messed up Library [open thread]

After making a heap of changes to my Calibre library I thought I'd make a manual save. I noticed there were hundreds more files than I thought was right and that perhaps I had multiple copies of some files.

So then I had the brilliant idea of emptying the folder and starting again, however, following this, Calibre would not allow me to save to that folder anymore.

Next brilliant idea was that I created a Calibre Library 2. I was able to save the library to this, however each folder within this new library is empty.

I've now discovered that the original Calibre Library folder is still connected somehow. Any of the files I've updated by adding and then deleting original, these have been added to the old Calibre Library folder.

When I 'save to disk' to my Calibre backup, this also has empty folders so I'm unable to save a copy of my library at all.

Can someone help me to save my library please?
