Question Error:Failed to create library: Failed

Code:
calibre, version 3.44.0
ERROR: Failed to create library: Failed to create calibre library at: u'G:\\Documents\\Calibre ebooks'.
You will be asked to choose a new library location.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "site-packages\calibre\gui2\main.py", line 160, in get_library_path

My installation is on a flashdrive. In pasting the error I've noticed it's looking in G but my flahdrive is letter E (sometimes it changes but I've never had this issue before.



It's possible that I recently updated Calibre from PortableApps and this is the first time I've run it since then.
