I'm not on XP
I don't get an error message. It either brings up the initial splash screen, then nothing, or starts the main window, but it's blank and the title bar reports 'not responding'
I'll try running as administrator. In two tries, it didn't hang.

None of the things specified in http://manual.calibre-ebook.com/faq....s-occasionally seem applicable.

It's the usual problem with intermittent issues - it's hard to track down when something only fails occasionally.

Did I miss something?
You may have a Race condition where the full shutdown has not completed before a restart fires.

Any cloud/backup software running?

Does it happen if you do a Quit (ctrl-Q), pause 15 seconds and start normally
