I'm not sure how that was causing the issue and if anyone can explain I'd appreciate it. I had the variable set under System Properties > Environment Variables > System Variables
That environment variable is used when you want to run calibre from source. It points to where the source code is. If the needed source files are not in that location, then calibre will fail.

For development, I don't set the environment variable globally. I use a batch wrapper script that does the setup needed and starts calibre-debug. That way I can run different versions if needed or the released code with no changes.
