That should re-create your library with all book metadata and files intact.

OK, so, several things.
1)
You saved my library. I now have 3175 books (which should be either all or most of them). So thanks a lot.
2) For some reason, while importing the library, it detected 84 books already in Calibre (which it shouldn't have, as the library was clean and these books were added into an empty library). SO, I don't know what happened there. No worries, though, I will clean it again if necessary. Just wanted to let you know.
For example, it detected different formats (one of them being OPF), and some of the books already in Calibre had a format name [none], which is weird.
Again, no worries, I will clean the library.
Aside from this, only other caveat is that the library now is in a different order and most books appear as added today.
But I got my whole library back, and that's the best.
Thanks a lot, mate
