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?
I would start Windows in safe mode to see if something you run at startup is causing the problem.
