So as you can see LOTS of libraries I now have to recreate.
Hoping I can cut and paste the old data to a new install so I don't need to rebuild this every time.
BTW...If you are going to say Calibre sorts it already for me but...I am OCD and my brain wants this....you can argue with my therapist if you disagree ...lol

You don't change any folders or files in your library folder manually. Calibre does its own thing there and if you mess with it, you'll corrupt your library. To see if anything is messed up, run Check Library, especially the part about the database and files matching.
Again, DO NOT CHANGE THE FILES AND FOLDERS IN YOUR CALIBRE LIBRARY.
It's not me who disagrees with you on this point. It's calibre. Manual changes in the library folder won't sync to the database, and that means the database will no longer match the files.
