Kovid, any idea what changed between 0.6.16 & .17 to cause this?

I'm guessing that the new way installing Calibre is causing this. My guess is that the shell can't find ebook-convert.exe and therefore exits without doing much.
The latest 0.6.20 installer does have an option to add the location of the installation folder to the PATH of Windows.
To test this theory:
- open a CMD prompt
- just type: ebook-convert.exe
( this should give you the help text of the program)
- if not then:
-- goto the installation folder of Calibre
-- then type: ebook-convert.exe
(now you should get the help)
If I'm not clear then let us know and I'll retry in a different wording, or someone else.
