BTW I like to have my portables directly at C:\folder. (I don't use the calibre portable sub dir, move the stuff to the top level)
On OS wide installs IIRC, the suggested location is the user folder( %USERPROFILE%)
This is working fine from what I seen in latest tests I made, but there is a regression in db management I will address later, related to the one-offs/save as profile. Other plugin functionality is unaffected.

I have 249 .sqlite files in %userprofile%\AppData - most are in the Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox folder, others are in the FDM, Infogrid, Microsoft . . . folders. And I have 163 .db files, most of which are sqlite files and most of them were put there by Microsoft.
Calibre puts its default library into the users home directory because Microsoft started to sync Documents into the clouds with Onedrive. Calibre used to put the default library in the Documents folder.
