I have just updated from v5.30 to Version 5.32, running on Windows 10, and for the first time ever the update failed.
Every time I try to start Calibre now I get the message "Failed to delete the Calibre program folder. Make sure calibre is not running."
I have tried to install to a new location and copy the library across and while it installs and works fine in a new location, it does not detect the library. Of course none of my settings would be detected either.
I've never known Calibre to fail so I don't now know what to do?
Can someone advise please?

Update:
Just been playing around trying things and now I get "Failed to launch: "C\XXXXXXXXXXXX\Calibre Portable\Calibre\Calibre.exe"
The system cannot find the file specified.
[Error Code: 2}]"

Sure enough if I go to the Calibre folder all the .exe files are gone.
