Uou may have a bad font:
Try changing the font in Preferences: Look and feel:Interface font.

I started calibre and changed the font to Courier New and restarted.
It crashed on restart.
Looking at the event viewer, all crashes are the same module and offset.
I'm beginning to suspect a threading issue as nothing is working reliably. Calibre will crash with no changes being made to the library: just start, stop and restart.
When the dialog pops up with the crash details, the GUI has been partially drawn but it disappears before dismissing the dialog.
I usually run calibre full screen, so I changed to not use full screen and I have managed to restart it twice. I have 2 screens of different sizes, with one above the other, and the desktop extending through the top. When I started in calibre in debug mode to remove the full screen setting, there was a 2nd startup message created when I removed the full screen mode.
