Would be great if I could right click the SendTo Menu & have a Calibre Shortcut there.
To add them to Calibre quickly

But it has got to be a simple answer for me maybe
Works like a treat for me. I add all by books via Send to. Just copy the shortcut from the Start menu to the Send To folder.

I renamed the shortcut to force it to stop of list.

Caveats, books will be added to 'current' library, I use an Intake library so I make sure it's current before I start adding. If calibre isn't running when I use "Send To _calibre" Windows will start it.

To open the Send to folder Windows key+R, then shell:sendto

To open the calibre start menu
