No, it is calibre 64bit installed in the default location, btw I also use xplorer2

I ran calibre-debug --default-programs=unregister on the day Kovid made it available. I also have the CALIBRE_NO_DEFAULT_PROGRAMS environment variable set.

Have a read of this thread Install/Uninstall Windows 10 calibre. I should have found it sooner
