Hi theducks! I was replying to BetterRed.

Yes, I did try the instructions in the link.

When I went to library maintenance and tried "Restore database", it went to the new database that has just the one item (the quick-start guide). So that's no help.

When I try to get it to go to the original library, it says the database appears to be corrupted and asks if I want calibre to try to automatically rebuild it. I said yes, and that's what got me "Restoring database from backups, do not interrupt, this will happen in multiple stages" on my screen. I stopped the restore after about 5 days of it just sitting there.

Not sure what to do now. I have literally THOUSANDS of e-books and importing them all back into Calibre one by one all over again is just an impossible task.
