Question about the kobo database backup function. I set this up initially to create backups in /calibre library/.dev/clara_bw on my Windows machine. I thought that creating a .directory would make it hidden, and prevent it from interacting with the actual calibre library content. I happen to run the check library function in calibre as a test, and got a warnings that the .dev folder are listed as invalid entries, and extra authors. Will this be a problem? I would like to keep all my calibre data in one directory, but I don't want calibre trying to import my kobo database backups as if they're books or modifying them.

Thank you for the advice in advance.
