No idea how to make the header better, so here's the long version...

No idea what happened, but Calibre isn't showing which books are on my device anymore. Or rather, it's not showing most books.

I have a Kobo Aura One, and I wanted to replace a few books (fixed some errors in Calibre). So, I plugged in my Kobo, started Calibre and... according to Calibre, I didn't have those books on my reader! I most certainly have them, I can open them on my device, I can see them in the file explorer. But Calibre thinks I only have a handful of books on there.

Is there a way to rebuild the [no idea what] Calibre uses to keep track on which books are on my device, without having to replace every single book?

It's not that I can't read my books now, it's just annoying if I want to replace books and especially if I want to sync things like date read and progress...
