I need to stop the "on device" folder

Having used Calibre for a while now, I was surprised to see a blue folder with a green downpointing arrow show up upon starting Calibre indicating the device folder. At first I was really surprised because I had only ever seen the on device folder only show as the device icon when it was plugged in.

I am thinking this has to do with my finally configuring my devices (3 Kindles) to Calibre, because now the folder is there upon startup every time. The only problem I have now is that I cannot make it go away. Every time I switch libraries it stops whatever I want to do to "get list of books on device". If I had only a few books it wouldn't be more than a minor annoyance, but as of now, it has been getting books for over 12 minutes and is only 65% done.

I have deleted the device drive info in the folder, I have restarted Calibre, I have restarted my computer, but it won't go away. This folder has made Calibre unusable if I have to wait 20 minutes every time I switch libraries or load Calibre.

PLEASE tell me how to get rid of it
