Strangely, Book cover download was ok.

I update to 2.79 and the issue was still there.

Right now I found a way to bypass the issue.
Ctrl + D
and I click first left button "Download only Metadata".
It works fine. You can manually choose which field to update.


Best regards
Since both methods use the same settings, this suggests something is wrong with one of the configured (user vs builtin) COVER Plugins
