there was a bug in the initial build of 0.7.38, uninstall, re-download and re-install

it gets stuck for a very long time..and then it shows "ERROR: ADDING FAILED"...Thereafter there is a message instructing to restart calibre or to reduce the number of books..same thing happens even if i am adding a single book.

I can't think of anything that could cause that, but uninstall and try installing an older calibre release from http://sourceforge.net/projects/calibre/files/

still no luck.. tell me something..if i uninstall and then reinstall an older version, is it still supposed to launch with my library intact? or should the welcome wizard come up? i am getting my library with all my previous settings intact..is that how it should be or am i not uninstalling it right?

uninstalling an re-installing will not affect your library.
