I believe that extracting and executing on the fly places things in a temp folder, when you exit it goes away.

From calibre's download page "To use, just extract the "Calibre Portable" folder from the zip file and run the "calibre-portable.exe" program inside it." You shouldn't have a zipped version of this portable on your USB device, you should just have the extracted folder.

Good Luck.
