Database moved and lost tags

A problem: I use calibre on my PC, the programme is housed in

C:\Program Files\Calibre2

while I kept my books in

F:\libri

By accident I deleted the whole drive F:\; luckily I had a backup of the contents, so I put all the books in

E:\libri

However they have now lost their metadata. I suppose to recover the tags, I should somehow tweak a file in C:\Program Files\Calibre2 to change the address from F: to E:, but I don't know how.
