Btw like others suggested you should move of windows 8 not just because of calibre but because it is end of life and no longer will be provided security updates etc. So it is a risk to run windows 8.
As a last resort if you really need to run a new version of calibre you could probably run a small linux distro off a usb for calibre without touching you win8 install.

Thank you for your informative post. Well, it looks like I'll have to leave the stone age sooner or later.
