Way to go, Theducks!
Copying over the metadata.db and metadata_db_prefs_backup files from my PC direct to the wife's PC did the trick.
But is that just a one-time fix? Here's our life:
- we both buy books mostly from Amazon but I buy way more than my wife does. (I'm retired, she's not)
- we both have separate Kindles and separate PC's, each loaded with Calibre and each holding the Calibre Library on the respective C-drives
- Both our PC's are connected to a networked storage device where there is a copy of the Calibre Library
- Once in a while, I will run SyncToy to freshen up the networked storage device with new content from both PC's (ie: two syncs, one from my PC and one from my wife's)
- Looking at the metadata.db file on the networked storage device, I can see it's dated from two years ago, as if it doesn't get synced by SyncToy
Now I need to ponder how to proceed. Any thoughts?
