Problem Uninstalling 6.10

I'm trying to upgrade to Calibre 6.44 from 6.10 on Windows XP. When I try to delete the C:\Program Files\calibre I get a message that I cannot delete calibre-parallel.exe, access is denied. How can I uninstall 6.10? Thanks.

Sounds as if you still have Calibre processes running?

If necessary you can always use Task Manager to make sure they are all gone

Right click on the calibre icon in the tray and choose "Quit". Calibre will run jobs in the background, even if you have closed the main GUI screen.
