I got my library fixed! BUT there is a bug(?) in 5.44 & others?
I found on the preferences under 'add books' that the title is using the metadata for title comparisons & removing the 'tick' doesn't get anything; there is a script that should have tried to get/use the metadata for the book.
How soon does the metadata of a removed book get updated as I had changed the title completely at the source (desktop Calibrary Library)? Tried restart but still dup results even tho the books have been removed.
Somehow got the book forced added onto the laptop (win11 home) & then edited the title to show like the book cover.
Then tried the Surface Go 2 tablet with win 11 pro. Same procedure in removing the books then adding the desktop books with the new titles. Here on win 11 pro, I get dups but with error showing 2 titles of the same removed book; the dialogue is different from the win 11 home as it options to 'select all' which I did; & the book got added after which I edited the book with the new title. Much easier with win 11 pro???
Problem solved but still something wrong with the metadata update timing? Just exit from the library & opening is not doing a 'restart'? Need to do a computer restart?
