Could not say precisely. No the only one with the Author names folder is the first one, and is the one i also use when i manually interact with the books i edit etc. This is also the one that opens when i click on 'Path: Click to open' in Calibre.
No idea what is the second one, the "Calibre Library" folder. Never used that.
I tried to delete the second folder and open Calibre, seems there is no difference. Calibre works just fine, it seems.
EDIT: So strange tho, in calibre if i go to 'Calibre' -> 'Calibre Library' i see this
https://i.postimg.cc/xdhc2Hbr/Cattura.jpg probably this was there before also but i found out just now.
In 'Calibre' i have also the option 'Remove library', that if selected let me to delete 'Calibre Library'.
So, how Calibre works with all my books etc. if the library that was selected was different from this one?
I discovered this only when i performed my backup.
