Without this plugin, it makes no sense for me to use Calibre  |
I have the copy of the book you sent. I can't reproduce it. When I try, I get:

The plugin does use an external routine that is part of a module that is included with calibre. It could be your anti-virus blocking it. It also needs to create a temporary file. Again, the anti-virus can block this. There plenty of discussion about this problem and how to work around it.
You say this happens for all your books. Do you only have PDFs? Or is it failing for epubs or other formats?
Did you try the conversion I suggested? This will help tell if it is calibre or something external blocking it.
And, has this ever worked? Or is this the first time you have tried the plugin?
