Thanks for having a go!
This error reminds me of a problem encountered when the plugin was first released when running calibre 32-bit. I thought I'd worked around that long ago.

The current version of the plugin (v4.0) is working for me on Windows 10 in all of these variations:
- calibre 5.2 64-bit
- calibre 4.23 32-bit (on my 64-bit PC)
- calibre portable v5.3, which uses the 32-bit version of calibre, which I think should replicate what your error log suggests you're using, i.e. 32-bit calibre on a 64-bit PC.

If you've been able to pick up the gist of the posts in this thread from the last couple of days you'll see that Kovid has warned that this plugin will cease functioning altogether with the next release (5.4) of calibre because some of the underlying calibre Windows modules, necessary for this plugin, have been removed.

I'm currently trying hard to see whether the plugin can be made to work without those old Windows modules. 24 hours ago I was hopeful something could be salvaged but after a fruitless day yesterday I'm no longer sure. Nevertheless, I'm not ready to throw in the towel just yet.

I can't follow up your problem in more detail, at the moment. Because of the above I need to keep my own non-portable versions of calibre installations as-is for a few days to keep trying to stop the plugin dying altogether.

I will try to give you a better answer when I have more time but, in the meantime, if you're able, perhaps you could try one of the calibre installations which I've stated above are currently working for me. Is there a reason you're using the 32-bit version of calibre on your 64-bit PC?
