Unhappy Calibre 0.8.65

When installing version 0.8.65 Calibre all books previously stored have disappeared.
Has anybody a solution?
Thank you

Angry Me too

The same thing happened to me yesterday! I upgraded to 8.65 and now have no books in library at all. 0000000 books!
I have bought these books! Just from different sources.
It will take hours to put them back in my library.
No more upgrading for me.

No problem here. Upgraded two computers and not a glitch on either.

I have done 2 years of almost every update (on multiple OS) and never had this issue.
What steps are you folk doing to break the normal update process that uses the existing settings to find your old library

Yep... Years of upgrading on multiple OS's and I've never lost my library. And truly you haven't lost anything. Even if there was a massive screwup and the database was wiped out, the books are still there on your hard drive/SSD/flash drive.

I have been using calibre almost 3 years and have upgraded virtually every single time and I would just like to re-enforce to anyone dropping by, there is no way upgrading calibre will affect your calibre library books or library settings.

If your library isn't showing simply find the directory that has the metadata.db file and use the library icon to point to that directory.
