Kovid already answered this question,

"calibre portable is only portable if you run it with calibre-portable.exe in its folder and from nowhere else."

You need to run calibre portable using calibre-portable.exe not calibre.exe.
And you should not use it with google drive as irc google drive and calibre drive naming conventions are not compatible.
