Hello,

I (using ChatGPT Pro) was able to create multiple Python scripts that will do the following (after installing Python):
Script 1) Convert YBK files to EPUB
Script 2) Rename the files using "Title" Metadata (example: PoGP - to - Pearl of Great Price)
Script 3) Create a spreadsheet (csv file) with colums for book title & author, and subfolder. 
                Example: 

Title................................
Author........................Subfolder

A Christmas Carol.........
Charles Dickens........Dickens, Charles/Christmas Carol, A

Reach out if interested.

Hi,

I've updated the script to simplify the process, in version 2.
After installing Python & applying some updates/plugins...
Version 2 will batch convert an entire folder of YBK files, and will rename the YBK files to their correct Book Titles.

The zip file can be found here:
