Yes, completely new. Updated today to the 2.60.0 release. I don't believe I added any plugins. I'm trying to import a file structure that has multiple versions (pub, mobi, and pdf) so i created the structure you can see in the screen shot below (top). This WAS on a separate portable drive plugged in via USB. I copied the whole library structure to the desktop, to try and remove that as a possible problem.

I get the same problem. When I import using 'Add Books, (One book per directory) I get the result you see in the screenshot, lower window.

I get the error seen in the other screenshot: I can open the books in the source folders with no problems.

I understand the author's (what I read as) frustration: equally, all I (believe) I'm doing is using the 'Add Books' option. If there is something that I am naively doing it would help me to know.

Cheers
