missing books after update to win10
I am not quite sure what i have done but after updating to Win10 -
i still have quite a number mobi books on various parts of computer but on starting calibre library it displays only a small number of books compared to my original list. I have tried to restore library but it doesn't seem to help. Can only see one example of calibre.exe which launches the library.

Any other suggestions or is the library corrupted ?

Calibre will only show books in the current library (metadata.db in designated folder).

I did a Screen Shot but not sure how to attach it and this opens Calibre in the usual format but as I indicated this only includes a small number of my books ??

Switch MR reply to advanced mode(use the paperclip icon to attach a file (jpg in this case). You can use up to 4 of the Browse sessions on the left to select files THEN CLICK UPLOAD. when done thlist of attachments should be in the Manage section: You may close that window and finalize your post.

Try running Check Library, viz:

Click image for larger version Name: Annotation 2019-12-21 103235.jpg Views: 111 Size: 33.3 KB ID: 175770

If there are no errors, the MOBI files "on various parts of calibre' were never added to the library.

Did you do some sort of system restore before or since you upgraded to Windows 10 ?

New Query
I have a book in Kindle in mobi format. I get a message can't open on the Kindle. Converted book from EPUB and tried deleting reconverting but without success.
Any ideas why a particular book won't open

The book can be read in the E Viewer
