So, a re-download of v1.32, then a re-install. And if that fails, I give 1.31 a try. It's obviously a machine issue rather than a calibre issue. But it's annoying.

One piece of evidence that MIGHT be involved. Over the weekend I did a little pruning using the Duplicates button. I switched from viewing individual cases to see the full list (that way, I could scan for docx/doc pairs and just delete the doc's). Grasping at straws, but it might be a clue if things continue to go south. (One last detail, my usual placement of Calibre is on the second monitor, full screen. That's a 2000x1200 window. The placements of the dropdowns is ballpark pt 300 by pt 48, or so.

Back to the re-install salt mines. Appreciate you thinking about this issue.
Could be a corrupt download problem, although that usually results in something more catastrophic like calibre not starting. But someone had a problem relating to displaying covers - IIRC that was fixed by an uninstall, fresh download and fresh install.

Have you tried running calibre on the primary monitor?

I wouldn't have thought it was anything to do with cleaning up duplicates.
