Interesting, it seems uninstalling the reader stepped on something in use by Calibre.

Reinstalling reader isn't going to fix Calibre. If you don't want reader then dump it. Uninstall it and be done with it then fix Calibre.

After you uninstall reader software then uninstall Calibre. Restart your computer then reinstall Calibre.

Good Luck.
