how to get calibre directory to list books not authors

Even so, the author assured me that nothing has changed in that part of the program in years, so it seems unlikely theĬalibre program is the source of the problem. When I moved subfolders to another folder, the search did work properly, so the problem is specific to the 'Calibre library' folder only. Subfolders in the Calibre library also do not search for epub. I even deleted the index and rebuilt it several times. I also made sure epub is marked as a indexable file type. I even marked the folder explicitly as allowed, but the problem persists. There were a few others like user app data. I have checked that, no exclusion for that folder listed. Yes, I asked the same question in the Calibre library and the author thought the same thing, that somehow that folder was excluded from indexing. It is very time consuming if I have to open each individual book folder to find the epub files when search should do same in a fraction of a second.ĭoes anyone know a solution to make the files show up? I have tried searching for capitalized 'EPUB' instead. I have tried with file view 'show known file extensions' (even though that is not needed for JPGs) The problem seems to be specific to the Calibre library folder. When I search other folders for 'epub' they do show up. When I search for 'epub' nothing shows, at all. When I search that folder for 'jpg' the search runs like normal. The list comes up empty, even though there are dozens such files in the folder. Since the latest win10 upgrade(s) that no longer happens. When I had a lot of books in the Calibre library and I wanted to see the listing I used to search the Calibre library folder in Windows explorer for 'epub' or '.epub' and the entire list came up.
