Books not recognized

Hi, I have been using calibre for quite a few years now. Recently I moved my library to my hard disk and when I try to open any book I get the message that this file has no format. Also the size of the book (MB) is not shown and is only a blank. I seem to have lost almost 10k books! Can someone tell me a solution for this?

TIA.

Ramesh.

Where Was the Library?
How did you move it?

No formats means that all that got moved was the DB, not all the Author folders.
