Hi all. Newbie to site so please be patient. I have used Calibre for some 9 months nowand found it far superior and more user friendly than Sony's own software ( Ihave a Sony PRS-505 by the way).
However, the other day I updated to version 6.45 and at the same time I deleted the folder Calibre library, thinking it would be a good idea to start with a clean sheet.(All my books are also stored on an external hard drive). Big Mistake!! When I brought up the updated version of Calibre it immediately said that the path to the library was invalid and to choose another. It then came up with a message containing the word Python and the whole application shut down. I have repeatedly uninstalled and reinstalled the programme, each time running all the usual registry cleanups and deletions to no avail.
Is there anyone out there in the great yonder who can help? PLEASE!
