Did you try this ?
I've had instances of error message pop-ups being hidden behind a File (Windows) Explorer window - IIRC the messages related to possible duplicates. So, calibre was waiting for a response to an error message I couldn't see. And I couldn't move the window obscuring the message because it didn't have keyboard or mouse focus.

I have been using the same operations to add books for years now, and have never had this problem before. I've updated the program with new versions many times, and never had this problem. Which is why I think it is something in my operating environment which is causing Calibre to hang.

Which window stays open? This one?
