@phamley - I suspect you may be misreading the term "New location". The adjective 'New' reflects the status of calibre's recording of its libraries in its gui.json file, not the status of folder/directory in the file system.

Using the "Use the previously existing library at the new location" option won't affect the library selected, however it will change the gui.json file in calibre's configuration directory.

I am still puzzled as to why the list of libraries went missing from gui.json, I have upgraded calibre hundreds of times (since 0.8.??) on my own and other folks PC's (remotely over the 'net) over the past several years - and I have never had calibre lose track of its libraries.

Do you use any third party programs to install or uninstall software. I've known 3rd party uninstallers to nuke everything in sight when configured too aggressively.
