Can someone help me please?!

When Amazon announced that it was stopping downloading of books I followed a link to download Calibre on to my laptop (operating on Windows 10) after watching a YouTube video, which recommended doing so and downloaded all my kindle books.

Everything seemed to be fine, it opened and it took all my ebooks which I sat and downloaded and everything seemed to be good... for a couple of days. Then for some unknown reason, after about 3 days when I clicked on Calibre, it just would not open and nothing happened. I went back to the Calibre site and followed all the troubleshooting instructions - uninstalling Calibre and re installing it, but it still won't open at all. I even followed the instructions in the troubleshooting section which bring up the coding to see what came up as an issue, but it meant nothing to me, and I had no idea what I was looking at but I will say that there was a lot of information on the screen when I did that, but unfortunately I have no idea how to add all that information to this message.

I left it alone for a few weeks and I've returned to it again, and it still doesn't work then noticed the site gave a link to this forum, so here I am. (Please bear in mind I am an older person, who on the whole finds tech bewildering and has no idea how things work, I just follow instructions on the screen so if anyone can help me by offering any information which will get Calibre working again I would be very grateful).

Thank you for reading this.
