I move all files converted in Calibre to their respective author folders using Windows File Explorer (because I don't use Calibre to store ebooks).

You could do the same by opening one of the epub files while in Calibre (right-click and choose Open Containing Folder).

File Explorer will open, and then hit the "up a folder" arrow twice (at the left of the URL box), and then do a Find for epub. You will then have a list of all your epub files in Calibre. Hit ctrl-a to select all, then hit ctrl-c to copy them all to the clipboard, and then go to the folder where you want to copy them and hit ctrl-v to paste all the epub files into that folder.

If you don't want to keep any of the epub files in Calibre, hit ctrl-x instead (to move them) and then ctrl-v.
