Yep. HWINFO64.

Unfortunately, the problem is NOT solved. I shut down the computer last night with Calibre working fine. This morning, upon booting up, I ran Calibre and have the same issue.

Windows Security (Defender) has nothing in its Protection History (about Calibre or anything else). I scanned the Calibre download (again) with it before the re-installation and it had no problem with it. Running a scan (Quick and Full) on the computer finds nothing (not even against Calibre).

BUT, if I turn off Windows Security's Real-Time Protection (Virus & Threat Protection > Manage Settings > Real-Time Protection), Calibre runs fine. Even if I turn Real-Time Protection on again. I'm going to go away for a bit so I can reboot the computer and see what happens then.
