I had carried out the backup which you suggested, but did not need to use it as after installing 3.38.0 all my settings and libraries were magically present!
Moreover, books could again be copied between libraries as before.

Thank you for your expert help. A big relief for me as I had accumulated more than 3,000 books in my various Calibre libraries.

I hope that in the next version of Calibre this bug will be corrected.

Kovid Goyal certainly created a fantastic piece of software.

Thank you again for your help.
Good. I did not expect a backup would be needed.
Do keep the backup in a safe place. I've been using PC's for over 30 years and have yet to discover a single failure mode that I could rely on being warned it was going to fail (And I have seen some doozies)

BTW What OS were you using, so Kovid can take a look when he drops by
