It worked in save mode and the missing folders are finally back, but when I start it in regular mode, I get the message:
"calibre, version 7.17.0
FEHLER: Kann keinen temporären Ordner erzeugen: Kann keinen temporären Ordner erzeugen, Calibre kann nicht gestartet werden "Details anzeigen" anklicken für weitere Informationen."
"ERROR: Cannot create a temporary folder: Cannot create a temporary folder, Calibre cannot be started “Click on ‘Show details’ for more information.”

I followed the instructions in this post, but with no effect.

After I changed the temp directory, it first seemed to be working, but than I got this message:
calibre, version 7.17.0
FEHLER: Contacting calibre failed: Failed to contact running instance of calibre, try restarting calibre
Failed to connect to Listener at: \\.\pipe\CalibreGUI-wolfgx with error: QLocalSocket::connectToServer: Invalid name
b'launched:["calibre.exe"]'
So i tryed to reinstall again and now I'm back to:
calibre, version 7.17.0
FEHLER: Fehler beim Starten: There was an error during calibre startup. Parts of calibre may not function. Click "Show details" to learn more.

I tryed Safe Mode again and it still works there. But in regular mode I´m stuck with this message. It seems that another program/utility/service somehow blocks calibre from working corectly, but I can't find the right one. And the last changes I made on my PC since the last time calibre was working, were setting up a Ubuntu USB boot drive and the installation of the ecosia browser, which I have already uninstalled.
But I don't have to use calibre that much, for now I can use it in safe mode and I won't reset my windows just for that. If you have more input I would be glad, but it`s not urgent.
Thanks for your help
