I have tried running it from the Start Menu and by going to its installation folder (both old and new) and doubleclicking on the .exe. In neither case will it run.
Have not tried the portable version. I'd like to get the regular version running first.
Edited to add: It DID run just fine with the directory structure I had.

I suggest you create a structure something like
Code:
eBooks
Software
Libraries
Library One
Library Two
Then install calibre-64bit-3.x.x.msi in eBooks\Software.
Why, well there's always been a 'golden rule' with calibre - the library folders should be treated as sacrosanct black boxes, by installing software in the library folder you've broken the rule. You may have gotten away with it prior to version 3, but.... There's further elaboration in an item in the FAQ, and a sticky thread in the Calibre/Library Management subforum.
My suggested structure would achieve what you seem to want - software and associated data in close proximity, whilst not contravening calibre's golden rule.
