The folder "C:\Users\USER\Documents\Library\Andrew Joshua Talon\Paint and Powder (10896)" is opened in another program, so calibre cannot access it.This is usually caused by leaving Windows explorer or a similar file manager open to a folder in the calibre library. If it weren't for the fact I use file explorer search so fairly, I doubt I'd have spotted it either.ĮRROR: Cannot open file or folder as it is in use: Could not change on-disk location of this book's files. Users with their libraries under Documents could bump into this easily and frequently without having any idea why it's happening. This, IMO, is a lot more problematic than 'user had file explorer open in library' because it's not obviously related. Calibre still fails trying to rename a book.Wait close to 2 hours while using computer for other tasks.Go on to something else, leaving search results, but keeping File Explorer open.Use Windows File Explorer search that happens to include Calibre library but wasn't for anything in the library.Later, I duplicated and saw that it was explorer.exe locking the book dir in the library. I did my search and moved on, leaving file explorer open (I use that a lot), but not on the search anymore.Īfterwards- several hours afterwards-I was blocked from changing a book title in Calibre until rebooting. I was recently using Windows File Explorer search-something I do very rarely-on my c:/users/USER dir, which also includes my Calibre libraries. It looks very much like Window File Explorer search that happens to include Calibre library can cause lock issues long after the search was done. I'm a bit late to this party, but I think I have another data point that may be relevant.
