Until last week Calibre was a little slow opening but not horrid when I consider that my library is around 250 gig and over 700000 "books". I updated Avast (it required a new version be installed) on my Windows 10 system and tried opening Calibre. Oh yes, the last thing I did before the Avast update was to run a check on the library and make some corrections.
Since then Calibre would not open. It would sit there for hours, I actually let it sit overnight to see if it would finally open.
I uninstalled Calibre using Control Panel and after a reboot reinstalled. Still no luck opening the program. I finally renamed the library directory so it would open on an empty folder. After a fairly long wait Calibre opened. I then switched to the newly named directory and my library was fine.
Once again Calibre is taking a long time trying to open. It has been three hours. I am wondering where I should be looking. The library itself is on a normal hard drive. The program is running on an SSD.
If anyone else has had these issues I would like any hints you have for fixing it.
I am starting to think I need to look into doing a reinstall of windows. It has been years since I did a clean install.
