You MESSED beneath the skirts using the OS and left a mess as Calibre had logged what files were there.
It would have been very simple to have Calibre do that task.
(In the Tag Browser) Formats:<select 'the original...'>: Select All results (ctrl-a): Right-click: Remove Files of a
specific format from
selected books:<select one format>
BTW There is a Tweak to stop the creation of those files, but I don't recommend a Newbie do that till they have made (and learned from) mistakes
Sorry, it has been a while since I had to recover a Library. You might try and run (right click the Library Icon)
Library Maintenance: Restore Database (
If you run CHECK, it will tell you how bad it currently IS )
That will rebuild closer to what it finds (Assumes you did not delete the OPF files that are in each titles folders. those were the backup of the boos metadata ENTRY). I also believe that checks for what formats are currently present.
