They all should be identically named (pattern), except the first part-00xx.calibre-data
The start at 0001 and are sequential till the last (depends on how big your calibre library sets were)

Thank you for your reply.

(PS: Image of what the files look like on the second computer attached)


Just to make sure I clearly understand what you are saying.

Are you saying that google drive itself changes versions of the file? I should try and directly copy these on to the new PC?

Do you know if Microsoft OneDrive has the same issue?

I currently dont have the ability to local copy > the two computers are in two separate locations. Is there another way I can transfer the whole library?
