Adobe Digital Editions 4.5.11 - Constant Duplication of -Some- Ebooks

[S23693744nnyc]

I note this problem is discussed https://community.adobe.com/t5/digital-editions-discussions/adobe-digital-editions-is-duplicating-my... and https://community.adobe.com/t5/digital-editions-discussions/multiple-copies-of-the-same-book/td-p/96...

I am running Windows 11 Home and require specific instructions on how to remedy this. It seems everytime I open Adobe Digital Editions, some ebooks reproduce. When I add some ebooks, again other ebooks reproduce. There are other instances when the books will reproduce, too.

Again, how do I fix this bug?

Hi

The problem is continuing on a new laptop.

Please advise of the fix for v 4.5.12. The issue reoccurs after deleting the registry entry, reauthorizing the computer, closing ADE and reopening the program (even if I did uninstall and reinstall, or don't).
