A Funny Thing Happened When I Tried Update

I Normally run the update every week but when i tried update this week from 9.17 to 9.18 a funny thing happened.

When i ran the updater, halfway through it gave me an error message saying:

The feature you are tryinng to use is on a network resource that is not available.
Click ok to try again or enter an alternative path to a folder containing the installation package calibre 9.16 msi in the box below.


i was able to cancel that error message and install 9.18 but when i went to add some books it refused to add them.

My next step was to try and uninstall 9.18 but that would not uninstall, again giving the error above, so i had to redownload 9.16 and run the uninstaller and point it towards that file. This did allow me to uninstall calibre 9.16 but when i rechecked in add and remove programs calibre 9.17 was there now, which i had to uninstall again.

Then finally i was able to install 9.18 with no error messages.

Has anyone ever come across this odd behavour. when i went from 9.16 to 9.17 i noticed nothing wrong.
