Hello, this is me, Christoph from Germany, posing a problem without a great background in Calibre: I downloaded Calibre 64 bit 6.25.0 on September 3rd, 2023 (system: Windows 10 Home). Positive effect: a decent e-book library. But I found that all my .docx documents had been converted into epub documents and PDF files could no longer be opened at all. I uninstalled Caliber (but only “normally” via the Windows System). Now the PDF files can be opened again without any problems, but for .docx files, opening under “C:\Program Files\calibre2\calibre.exe” “%1” is still automatically recommended, but at least the alternative Libre Office Writer is also recommended, which continues to work. Did I do something wrong when downloading? (I’d like to download Calibre again)
Thank you in advance. Chris.
