If you do daily incremental backups to a USB drive or cloud storage, should only take a few moments.

Thanks. I do have occasional backups and normally use them when I have to refresh Calibre. I was having a very strange error where everything was apparently corrupted. I ended up having to re-add all my books and it remembered most metadata - title, author, publisher/date, comments, series - but not one piece of custom column data.
The FAQ says it should have, but maybe it was because I wasn't able to select the existing library containing the metadata file and instead had to re-add my books. Maybe?
Your daily backups. Are you doing that manually or did you set up a program to run?
