I am not suggesting these are the killer solutions but one never knows until tried:
1. Easy and Safe to do; Download CCleaner and run the registry cleaner. It may, solve the problem but I would not hold out much hope.
2. Get Uninstall value from Registry: Start>Run>regedit. Navigate to key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion\Uninstall. Left click each of the { } items in the left hand pane (I don't think you will find Calibre listed under its real name, but it may be) until you see in the right hand pane that you have the one for Calibre. If it is not found then exit. If it is there then double click on the UninstallString registry value and select and copy (CTRL+C) the Value Data box contents. DON'T Change Anything. Exit regedit and open Start>Run and paste (CTRL+V) into it the Value Data box contents you copied as the string to run; click OK. This may work or it may fail with an uninstaller not present or other type message.
If you are confident in the Registry and don't have CCleaner installed already, then if it were me I would do 2. first.
