Calibre is no longer able to communicate with my Kindle.
I receive the following error:

calibre, version 0.8.2
ERROR: Error: Error communicating with device

[Errno 13] Permission denied: 'E:\\driveinfo.calibre'

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "site-packages\calibre\gui2\device.py", line 62, in run
File "site-packages\calibre\gui2\device.py", line 278, in _get_device_information
File "site-packages\calibre\devices\usbms\driver.py", line 97, in get_device_information
File "site-packages\calibre\devices\usbms\driver.py", line 85, in _update_driveinfo_file
IOError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: 'E:\\driveinfo.calibre'

apparently, there was a CRC error with the file driveinfo.calibre
I noticed the file had 0 bytes. I was able to delete the file. It is not recreated.

Is there anything I can do to enable Calibre to link to this device?
