Thanks for your answers.
I sync to OneDrive because it's a good way to backup the libraries as well as often having access to books on other devices without hassles.
I am aware of the warnings about syncing in the post mentioned, but honestly, I've been using this method for years and have never had a problem.
The only thing that seems to help is this:
1. turn off sync on Onedrive (which has to be done every 24 hours, or by logging out)
2. work normally in Calibre
3. close Calibre
4. move the full-text.db to a directory that is not being synced
5. let OneDrive sync everything else
6. move the full-text.db back to the Calibre library folder
7. turn off Onedrive sync again
then, once a week or so, I let OneDrive sync everything
>>> it works but is tedious and problematic because it means that other (non-Calibre) Folders are not geting synced.
Anyway, I appreciate your attention to the question
