Running Calibre (currently 5.32.0) on Windows 10. As of several weeks ago Calibre became impossible to run. The program would start up (albite a little slow) and I could maybe get one function/option/mouse-click to respond (very slow) and at that point any further attempts to do anything result in Calibre hanging. This happens regardless of what I've attempted to do, everywhere from the open-file dialog to simply scrolling down a page.
I only have a little over 5k book entered and prior to some point in the recent past, everything was functioning normally. I've tried reverting to older versions but it doesn't seem to help which leads me to suspect some type of library issue, but I would have no idea where to even begin.
Any thoughts or suggestions? At this point the program is completely unusable. I'd hate to have to start over with something else.
