I wanted to weigh in here.

I have Win 7 64 bit. I am running Calibre 0.6.37.

Ever since I upgraded I have had nothing but problems. Calibre half creates files then crashes leaving me with a locked file I cannot delete. Calibre creates a new metadata-journal that makes Calibre crash when searching for the database. Calibre has also started to simply not recognize my folder location as the database location anymore.

Another item is that if I leave Calibre running overnight, it will have a I/O crash when trying to fetch news on the scheduled time.

None of these issues existed in the previous builds. It is enough for me to want to find another program because at this point, Calibre only runs on my old XP machine.
