For each library you exported create an empty folder on the new computer, probably following the same structure. I have my libraries like so:

Code:

D:
    Calibre
        Libraries
            Books
            Covid
            Default
            ...
            Test

So I would recreate that structure on the new computer.

The folder you Exported to (e.g. F:\CalData) should contain files named part-0001.calibre-data, part-0002.calibre-data…. part-nnnn.calibre-data.

When you Import, first thing is to browse to and select the folder you Exported to: e.g. F:\CalData.

Then for each library you exported, you will be prompted to browse to and select the empty folder you just created for that library.
