@theducks Saberdeyn is correct.

Start the viewer (eg via the Start menu shortcut), click the Blue diskette, the file open dialogue will pop up at the user's home directory - from there you can navigate to location of the 'loose' epub. The calibre GUI does NOT have to be running.

Not the way I'd ever do it, because I would already be at the 'loose' epub in my file manager. But some people prefer to start from the process, whilst others, like me, prefer to start from the data.
