Install on Windows Server 2022

Hi All,
I am having issues getting Calibre to run on Windows Server 2022 (on top of VMWare ESXi). I know that the answer is probably "Calibre is not supported on Windows Server", but was wondering if anyone has it running and how they achieved it.

I had a successful install running about 6 months ago on the same VM (I guess prior to some Windows updates?). But have not started it up in a while and now Calibre won't run. When I try to start it, nothing happens. Output from calibre-debug -g:

calibre 7.26 embedded-python: True
Windows-10-10.0.20348-SP0 Windows ('64bit', 'WindowsPE')
('Windows', '10', '10.0.20348')
Python 3.11.5
Windows: ('10', '10.0.20348', 'SP0', 'Multiprocessor Free')
Interface language: None
EXE path: C:\Program Files\Calibre2\calibre-debug.exe

I have tried all the usual stuff: reboot, re-install, delete calibre folders, etc.

Any help would be greatly appreciated
