Upgrade Storageweird library behaviour [report_ID:83022766]
I tried to move a couple of subcollections via drag 'n' drop.
When I dragged the subcollection A into B, I had a duplicate A* in B.
So I tried deleting A in the previous place.
But instead A* in the "new place" disappeared.
Further, I cannot delete A now.
To add to the confusion, the content of A now is:
Well, ALL entries and items I have in Zotero.
The initial files of A are lost in the ocean, so to speak @_@
I'm not too savvy and I don't know what to make of it...

2) Before closing Zotero, make a backup of the zotero.sqlite and .bak files in your Zotero data directory.
3) Restart Zotero and check your database integrity from the Advanced → Files and Folders pane of the Zotero preferences.
And then restart Zotero again and assess the situation.
Upon following the steps:
the collections are gone, the entries and items are alive.
Can live with that...

Depending on when this happened, you should be able to restore from one of the automatic backups. (By this point, you should try the versions in your backup of that folder.)
