Checked and unchecked that box but there's no change sorry.
It only affects newly-added books.

If you download a AZW3 that is what gets added.
Conversion Happens AFTER if the box was ticked. It does not do your house keeping afterwards.
Not all conversions go 100% (rare, but GIGO strikes), so letting OTTO loose is not a good idea

Thanks for the advert but......
So do I tick the box or not?
As no change either way with old or new books bought either

Ps who is Otto

You can always go back to the beginning of this thread. Change the search string to 'formats:EPUB and formats:azw3' to select all books where both ePub and azw3 formats exist, then Remove books => Remove files of a specific format from selected books. Select azw3 and click ok.

Thought about that but lost confidence.
Is it important if I still end up with the files?
Not well at the minute.
