Welcome to MobileRead!

Yes, you probably did something wrong. At some point, you were probably asked if you wanted Calibre to be the default app for your files and you clicked yes. That can be fixed in the Windows settings by selecting different defaults for specific file types. After you've done that, it should be ok to install Calibre again. But next time watch out for what you agree with, no matter if it's Calibre asking or the Windows system itself. Don't just automatically click yes to everything.
