Beside the original files after convert format, I also add to the book folder mp3, mp4 or image files that is related to the books.

I change the Title or Author(s) when cover grid is turn off which looks like file explorer. I single click at the title or author cell to change Title or Author(s) name.

After the change all files are gone except cover.jpg, metadata.opf and the pdf file
If you are adding these files to the directory for the book, then that is expected behaviour. Calibre doesn't know about them, so it doesn't know what to do with them. If you add them to the book via calibre, they will be kept with the book when the author or title is changed.
