@jecilop,

Create a windows .bat file using your text editor of choice containing a one-liner something like this (assuming you're using calibre 64-bit):

Code:

"c:\program files\Calibre2\calibre.exe" --with-library "d:\calibre\MyTestLib"

where the red bit is the Windows path to the directory containing the calibre library you want.

Edit: WAG, in this context, "Wild-ass guess", I think
