Export All

Previous versions had an export-all option to help move a Calibre set from machine to machine (I used it also as a long-term backup). I can't find it anymore (is it gone or I am not recalling where it was?).

The reference indicates that the export-all is under the Calibre tab but it really is "hidden" under the "Calibre Library" tab on Calibre 8.5 - Thanks. And I don't know if it exports all or only this Library.

It will export the Libraries you select AND the Configuration data.

The text under the calibre icon is the name of current library, e.g. right now mine is showing as "Books", if I switch to another library it will change accordingly, e.g. to "Media", "Creators", Test" etc.

The Export All will then show a list of ALL the Libraries Known (those you can switch to with a click). You can deselect those not wanted.
This does the entire (selected) Libraries AND your entire calibre user configuration folder.
If you have multiple libraries, you probably do not want to do this with a flash drive. It could take hours as they are slower than spinning rust.
