So, it consumes twice as much space as one might first think.

IMO the audio should go, my first gen Go has a 64GB eMMC drive, the HP equivalent is 32GB… users of such won't want to waste space on unnecessary bloat.

I'd like to know where CCR gets the data it stores in its history.json file… here's a snippet of mine:

  {
    "timestamp": "2025-08-23 10:19:36",
    "event_type": "plugin_installed",
    "details": {
      "event_type": "Plugin installed",
      "name": "View Manager",
      "version": "1.10.3",
      "path": "C:\\_AppData\\Calibre\\Config_64bit\\plugins\\View Manager.zip"
    }
  },
  {
    "timestamp": "2025-08-23 10:19:36",
    "event_type": "setting_changed",
    "details": {
      "category": "Search",
      "setting": "Search as you type",
      "new_value": "False",
      "old_value": "None",
      "source": "gui.py.json",
      "timestamp": "2025-08-23 10:19:36"
    }
  },
  {
    "timestamp": "2025-08-23 10:19:36",
    "event_type": "setting_changed",
    "details": {
      "category": "Search",
      "setting": "Highlight search matches instead of restricting the book list to the results",
      "new_value": "False",
      "old_value": "None",
      "source": "gui.py.json",
      "timestamp": "2025-08-23 10:19:36"
    }
  },

View Manager was last installed on 2024-01-24 17:50:06, and the search settings were set years ago. And why did everything happen at once, was there a singular cosmic event
