Still got problems - sorry!!

Hello again,

I am trying to follow the advice given. I deleted the Calibre Library from OneDrive and waited for it to sync with the cloud hence nothing either on my machine or in the cloud via OneDrive.

I had kept a back up copy on a different HDD (the D drive) in my machine just as a back up of the library.

I uninstalled Calibre using RevoUninstaller Pro which scans for leftover files / folders after the normal Calibre uninstall finishes. This removes left over stragglers.

I reinstalled Clibre and let it set its library on the C drive. I then tried to add about 20 books from one folder in the Backup copy on the D drive and got the error shown on the attachment. As I hope you can see, the error pops up and there are 5 books shown as being duplicated with only the Calibre User guide as the one author / book existing in the library. The error was screen printed before the newly added books were shown on the Calibre basic linrary screen.

WHERE ARE THE DUPLICATE RECORDS SO THAT I CAN FINALLY CLEANSE WHAT I ASSUME ARE LEFT OVERS FROM THE UNINSTALL OR MAYBE SOMETHING ELSE?????

As I said in one of my previous messages, I am not an in depth techy so if anyone can offer some advice to completely cleans my machine of Calibre and left overs so that I can basically start from zero again I would be very grateful.

Thanks, Frank
