I always keep the installation files for software I am running along with at least one version back. It's not as necessary for calibre since all previous releases are currently available online as others heave noted.

It is a good idea to have at least one backup. There are lots of backup solutions. I use FreeFileSync to make occasional local copies and IDrive for daily online backup. Those meet my needs. I recommend doing your own research to find out what would work best for you.
