No metadata.opf

Calibre is not creating the opf file when new books are added.
What am I doing wrong?

It is not Instant, especially with a bib number of books added at one time

Right click the Library icon: Library Maintenance: Library Metadat Backup Status

calibredb backup_metadata --library-path="S:\Calibre\MyLibraryName"

If you select "Library Maintenance > Library Metadata Backup Status > Queue All Books" to backup all metadata to an .opf file, exit from Calibre, and then run calibredb as shown below, all of your .opf files will be refreshed en masse very quickly. The log file produced will show you the details of the refreshing operation so you can verify it is working properly.


Code:
calibredb backup_metadata  --library-path="S:\Calibre\MyLibraryName"
For all valid parameters, use: calibredb --help

Thanks a lot. I though that was automatic.

It is. At the rate of about 1 per second. When Calibre is running.
