I can only start Calibre by clicking on the ikon on my startpage.

Philipstelvio - click Start button
- in search box type notepad
- you should see Notepad.exe at top of results list - double click it
- Easiest way to get the path to a library folder is to use Windows Explorer (that's the file manager not the internet browser). Windows-key+e will start Windows Explorer.
- Browse to the location of the required library folder
- Shift+right click the required library folder
- Select Copy as Path. That will put its path into the clipboard
- Go back to the Notepad window
- Type calibre --with-library (nb: there's a space on the end)
- Paste the clipboard (ctrl+v)
- you should see something like this
Code:
calibre --with-library "C:\Users\<your windows user id>\Documents\Main Library"
- Save the file from notepad to your desktop with a file name something like CalibreMain.bat
- Close Notepad
- Double click the CalibreMain.bat icon (it will be a gear wheel icon)
Calibre should start with the required library
