Hopefully something will turn up -- either a brainwave or some common factor that identifies the problem as more people reproduce it.

I decided to do a comparison between calibre-portable.exe and calibre.exe
Some notable differences:
calibre-portable.exe:
Code:
; CALIBRE_CONFIG_DIRECTORY=C:\Users\sweet\Calibre Portable\Calibre Settings
; CALIBRE_PORTABLE_BUILD=C:\Users\sweet\Calibre Portable\Calibre\calibre.exe
; CommonProgramFiles=C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files
calibre.exe:
Code:
; CommonProgramFiles=C:\Program Files\Common Files
(and a little later:
Code:
; ProgramFiles=C:\Program Files (x86)
Code:
; ProgramFiles=C:\Program Files
My path is different as well:
Code:
; Path=C:\WINDOWS\system32;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\System32\Wbem;C:\WINDOWS\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\;C:\Program Files\Calibre2\;C:\Program Files\Intel\WiFi\bin\;C:\Program Files\Common Files\Intel\WirelessCommon\;C:\Users\sweet\AppData\Local\Microsoft\WindowsApps;
Code:
; Path=C:\Program Files\Calibre2\;C:\WINDOWS\system32;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\System32\Wbem;C:\WINDOWS\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\;C:\Program Files\Calibre2\;C:\Program Files\Intel\WiFi\bin\;C:\Program Files\Common Files\Intel\WirelessCommon\;C:\Users\sweet\AppData\Local\Microsoft\WindowsApps;
Or this one:
Code:
; PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE=x86
; PROCESSOR_ARCHITEW6432=AMD64
Code:
; PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE=AMD64
Calibre-portal also has these lines (right at the start)
Code:
