I have Calibre portable running on a Lenovo Ideapad 700-ISK laptop with Windows 10 x64 up-to-date, and ever since the Anniversary update I can't get Calibre to run smoothly without freezing every few clicks inside the application unless I open it with Admin privileges. I used to have the x64 version, but ever since the Windows update it kept crashing and to this day I haven't found the culprit.

I read above about the Sticky Password solution and I've already added Calibre to the ignored app list, but still, no go, unless I open with Admin rights. For the life of me I can't seem to figure out what has the Anniversary update changed in the OS to ruin the butter-smooth functionality of Calibre... Why does the app run without crashes ONLY when opened with Admin Rights?
