Finding Calibre Library Folder - After Calibre Update

Deb-Ellen, I doubt very much that your 4000 books are really missing. When you upgrade your Calibre version, the folder where your books are stored is untouched. The new version of Calibre simply finds that original folder and uses it. So you need to tell your new v6.3 Calibre where the folder is located. Perhaps someone more skilled than myself can give you more detailed advice. But I'm quite sure that your books aren't gone and that you won't need to retrieve them from your backup.
