there is no way that using calibre's add books to library will import ransomware !

AFAIK, it is impossible to plant dangerous malware inside of an epub or AZW book, and there is no way that calibre would actually execute any malware that did somehow make it into the library folder.

so treat the library as a black box owned and managed by calibre, use only calibre functions to access content, and nothing can go wrong.


FWIW my calibre library is proected by panda and MAlwarebytes products AND my calibre library works fine, AND I am using windows 10.

so as I said several posts back, just get a better free AV and turn off defender OR learn how to set folder exclusions IN defender; it's not rocket science - just ask Google

PS criticizing those who try to help is a good way to get yourself ignored.
