Calibre suddenly won't launch

[jeanravel]

I have been using Calibre for several months with a Kindle 3 and Windows 7 Home. For a library I have My Books\Calibre Library\ . I just tried starting Calibre (no device attached) and it won't start. Instead I get a pop up error message saying

Python function terminated unexpectedly
[Errno13] Permission denied:
'c:\\users\\jean\\appdata\\local\\temp\\gen_py\\2. 7\\_init_.py'
(Error Code:1)

I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the latest update, and I still get the same message. Any suggestions?

Clean out the junk in the c:\\users\\jean\\appdata\\local\\temp\\ directory and try again.

That worked perfectly, thanks!
