I should have known it would be Microsoft's fault...
@Phssthpok - What AnotherCat said

Another choice would be to use calibre portable.
  1. You'd probably want to put ...\Calibre Portable\Calibre in the %PATH% environment variable and remove anything that's there now for calibre.
  2. If you want to keep your libraries where they are now, then put symlinks to them in the ...\Calibre Portable directory. You create can create symlinks with the MKLINK utility.
  3. If you want to keep your current settings then delete everything in the ...\Calibre Portable\Calibre Settings directory and copy the contents of the %appdata%\calibre directory there.
  4. You can then uninstall calibre, and remove the %appdata%\calibre directory
The only downside relates to conversion of very large books, calibre portable is the 32bit build. AFAIK the only advantage of 64bit calibre is in the conversion of very large books - bibles etc.
