Error: I can't edit metadata
Hello everyone. I'm having some problems editing metadata of my books. When I try saving the edits I made, I get this error message:

Code:
calibre, version 0.9.8
ERREUR : Exception non gérée: <b>error</b>:(3, 'CreateFile', 'Le chemin d\x81facces specifie est introuvable.')

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "site-packages\calibre\gui2\metadata\single.py", line 472, in accept
  File "site-packages\calibre\gui2\metadata\single.py", line 445, in apply_changes
  File "site-packages\calibre\gui2\metadata\basic_widgets.py", line 274, in commit
  File "site-packages\calibre\library\database2.py", line 2507, in set_authors
  File "site-packages\calibre\library\database2.py", line 2494, in windows_check_if_files_in_use
  File "site-packages\calibre\utils\filenames.py", line 290, in __init__
error: (3, 'CreateFile', 'Le chemin d\x81facces specifie est introuvable.')
Can anyone help me with this please?

Thank you for the reply. But I don't get it. The calibre library folder is in "my documents", which I think is the default folder and I don't think it's a networked folder (correct me if I'm wrong). The exact path is C:\Users\Admin\Documents\Bibliothèque calibre

@PinkUsamimi: Quite often knowing more info about your environment CAN help track down issues. For instance, recently the community has learnt that use or RoboForm can cause calibre to crash due to the manner that Roboform inserts it's hooks into all active programs.

Additionally, knowing what you HAVE done to solve your problem can help others who have the same problem.

Gathering information about a problem is always step one and yes it was meant to help.
