I have the exact same problem on both my XP machine and my Windows 7 64 bit machine. I have never before installed Calibre on either computer. Also, I have tried uninstall/reinstall to no avail. On first install, I was able to apply a few initial settings, when reinstalling I was not. Where are those settings stored?
