Greetings to all.
Today I discovered this add-on and I am very excited about what I can do with it.
However, I cannot install Elasticsearch. On your website there is no msi executable for windows 10, there is only a zip with the elasticsearch-8.1.0-windows-x86_64 folder. I tried to use the exe's from the Bin subfolder with no result. Elacticsearch.bat file opens a cmd console but nothing else. It also does not connect to the server, although the win10 firewall asked me for permission and I gave it.
The instructions on the Elacticsearch web site are very confusing to me, as they refer to the use of code (I am a philosopher, not a computer guy).
Placing the path in the "options" section of PowerSearch does not work either.
I would appreciate any help, as this add-on would be very useful in my daily work.
I use Calibre 5.37. Win10 and my pc is an i5-4460, 3.20GHz. 16 gb ram.
