Hi everybody,

Since upgrading to Calibre 5, I've lost some functionality due to Python conflicts. The two main issues I've had are when trying to download metadata or reach the plugin index page. I'm using the portable version of Calibre 5.3. Here are the two error messages respectively:

Download metadata:

Thanks very much!
