Numbers discrepancy

I have a possible problem I'd like some help with.

As you can see from the first image, Calibre reports 1,227 EPUBs, and 325 PDFs. A total of 1,552. In addition, I have 8 books listed with no formats (not published yet) making the total of 1,560 as shown at the foot.

When I do a maintenance check, Calibre reports no errors and that files match up (see second image).

However, when I do a Windows search on the Database folder, Windows reports 1,224 EPUBs and 324 PDFs - a total of 1,548 or 4 less than I had expected.

I went back to Calibre and checked, and no books have multiple formats, also, all books (other than the 8 already identified) have no formats.

Checking authors was my next thought, but Windows has only 155 folders for the 657 authors showing in Calibre (I have a few Anthologies)! So that is not going to be an easy match-up.

So am I right to be querying this or is there an obvious solution I've not thought of? If there isn't, can anyone suggest an easy way to identify the 3 EPUBs and 1 PDF that appear to be in Calibre, but are not saved where I expect them to be.

Thanks,


Colin
