My old laptop with my highly customized Calibre library died. I can access the hard drive but not run Calibre on it. Any suggestions for re-creating my library on a new device?

Normally I would use export, etc. So far I've copied my old file folder that contains multiple libraries onto the new device. (BTW I know using one library can be better practice but this is where I'm at right now).

Suggestions appreciated! TIA.
