Thanks for response, Doc. To clarify, Kovid suggested checking that variable. I interpreted that he meant setting it to the folder the Library was at, but you're saying not to because it is being read as a device? Is this because the Library is on OneDrive or is it because auto_connect translates to any folder path reading as a device, even C: drive?

TEST: Last night I moved my library from OneDrive to C: drive. To understand your suggestion, I changed the auto_connect_to_folder variable to the new path, 'C:\\Users\\megha\\Calibre_Library_laptop'; applied change; quit/restarted calibre. No change; it restarted with a device attached.

Then I set the auto_connect_to_folder path to ''; applied change; quit/restart. SUCCESS!! No device attached. Thank you SO much for giving me a solution!

I never saw that variable prior to Kovid's suggestion, but the folder path was already set when I checked. So something I did from the GUI set it or a plugin did. For posterity: it seems like auto_connect to a folder might as well be auto_connect a device, yes?

Thank you everyone for working the problem! Thank you, Doc, for the solution
