That does work, and I also tried deleting one format of a book that was only available in that one format, and the book does now show up in format false.

So right now, I've got a LOT of books that show no formats available when I am on the edit metadata screen, and also on the small details pane below the book list when I select a book. But when I search for format:false, None of those show up in the results. Clearly, the 'in memory' database is out of sync with whatever Calibre looks at to populate the details pane. How can I fix that?

Do I just need to uninstall calibre and re-install it? Or would it still see the old data files and end up with the same issue?

If I do re-install, is all the work I've done on correcting metadata for books going to be lost, or does calibre save the changes in the original ebook when I make changes?
