The other thing to try (if possible) would be the other installable version (32 if you have 64, 64 if you have 32 and you have enough memory). IIRC this solved a couple of other 'strange' problems in the past. It's suggested as a possible remedy in User Manual - calibre freezes/crashes occasionally?

OK. Out of nerves (I already tested both 32 and 64 bits), I got the Portable version.
Reboot, wait for activity to stop.
Starts 'Ressource monitor'
When there is NO DISC ACTIVITY at all, and very little processor, I started
Calibre-Portable.
After 2 or 3 seconds, even the RESSOURCE MONITOR freezed until I counted to 50, and then calibre started.
Just to be sure, i restarted it with ressource monitor active. On this second start, no freeze, very little disc activity and no freeze.
So there is something, done only on first start after reboot, that freeze Windows. Activity during the freeze was NOT recorded, everything was
really dead.
