its probably too tricky to detect if sync is ON for one drive during an install, and to warn at that stage ?

As I recently wrote in this or another thread, as of version 3.30 (August 24 2018) calibre stopped creating the default library in the Documents directory, it now creates it in the users Home directory. But that's for new installs, not updates to existing installs - updates leave everything as is.
This was discussed and resolved back in August last year. There's a thread about it somewhere.
I've installed calibre for a number of friends and library reading club members. I always set them up with their default library as %USERHOME%\Calibre\Libraries\Books. To my mindset an ebook library is no more a document, than a music album is a document
I also relocate their configuration folder to %USERHOME%\Calibre\Configuration. For users who use Autoadd I create a %USERHOME%\Calibre\Autoadd folder. And lastly I configure their backup process to mirror %USERHOME%\Calibre\ - in its entirety.
