Error Communicating with Device

I am getting the Error communicating with device message. The detail info -
Spoiler:

Cannot write to file: hr=2147500037 facility=0 error_code=16389 description: Unspecified error

This problem started after upgrading sometime after 12/18/2018. I am using a Kindle 5th Gen connecting to a Win10 PC running 64 bit Calibre. I have reset the Kindle multiple times, rebooted the PC, changed cables & USB ports, renamed the metadata.calibre files all to no available. Outside of Calibre, I am able to read & write to the device without any errors. I know that I can connect via the content server but I would prefer to connect via USB into Calibre.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.
