Find All Locked Items
I have just moved my calibre library to a new computer, and have found a number of items within my library that are locked by DRM.
I don't want to fiddle with the DRM. I just want to find all the locked items, so that I can delete them. Is there a way to have calibre search for unopenable or locked items, much like I could use format:false to find empty books? Thanks for your help! |

The Quality Check plugin has an option to find epubs with DRM. I don't know of a way for other formats.

Cheers, David. That plugin worked well, none of my epubs have DRM.
I think I'm going to need a solution for azw files. Any more ideas floating around out there? |

@silky32 - try mass converting them to epub, I think calibre will reject the ones with DRM.

@BetterRed
Thank you! Converted all .azw files, which turned up the ones which were DRMed. Then a simple matter of scanning through for those books which only existed as .azw files and deleting them. Many thanks. |
