Hello:

Yesterday my Windows 10 totally crashed so I decided to install Windows 11; it also meant that I had to install (Portable) Calibre. I thought that a Portable program meant that settings were kept in files, similar to the way that Windows did it before the Registry came along.

Anyway, everything was gone (not the libraries, thankfully) - I had to manually add the Libraries - everything! Fortunately, that's all I've had a chance to look at so far so if anyone has any advice regarding my situation, it would be most appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Sparky
