@DaltonST:
I bet you use Linux. Based on quick research, it appears Linux cannot handle STARTUPINFO like Windows can.
I will upload a theoretical fix, but I do not have Linux so I cannot test it. You can be the guinea pig.

Right. I use mostly Linux, I have mentioned this before. I am now testing now your new version.
I get no more the aforementioned errors!
Automatic generation of Zotero Custom Columns works! (I don't understand what do you mean by "spawning calibredb in subprocesses")
I can update title and author of a selected book (ISBN and ISSN haven't tried)
I can manually update calibre metadata for a single book.
I don't get what is really happening at step 2 and 3.
How can I update several books automatically?
The books must be first imported into calibre?
I thought calibre would import all books and their metadata after reading the csv file.

Besides that I would like to make two suggestions:
- Apart from the title and author there could be even more entries which coincide, so the user could be offered the option to associate them and overwrite them too - Maybe in a table?
- An option to make the new Zotero entries appear in the details view of Calibre would be nice.
