I use Calibre primarily to convert formats and save de-DRM'd ebooks via Apprentice Alf's plugin. However, over time I've had a few hiccups and occasionally find that a book in the library hasn't been converted.

Is there an automated way to find any books in Calibre library that still have their DRM intact so that I can correct them and be done with it? My OCD needs to know.

Thank you for any suggestions.
The Quality Check helps a lot, but I found no shortcut to checking each book. Just press "V" and check them all. I had an audiobook going while I was doing that the first time around (over 2,000 books). FWIW, if these were free books from Amazon that you deleted off, you can go to Orders and find the order number and they can restore it IF there is still a contract between the publisher and Amazon.
