Moved Calibre Library; Covers Disappeared
I moved my Calibre Library, according to instructions on the FAQ, from an external drive where it was perfectly happy to Dropbox where all is well except that the cover on each of my 6442 books is missing. I pray this is fixable and that some kind soul here can direct me.

Storing your calibre library in dropbox is dangerous, see https://manual.calibre-ebook.com/faq...rked-drive-nas
You can either reread the covers from the ebook files using the bulk metadata edit dialog or re-download them using the bulk cover dialog (select all books and right click the edit metadata button for both) |

You are so kind to take the time to help me out; thank you. Duly noted about playing in the cloud. At least it's not Google Drive!
