E-book Viewer and Editor don't work !

Ilona · 06-20-2025, 09:53 AM

Hello.
I'm using Windows 11 (probably without the latest updates). In the ad hoc menu, the "View" command no longer allows me to view or edit the selected epub, pdf, etc.
A year ago, I could... I have to open the folder containing the book to view it: not at all practical.

I suspect your security software is blocking the launch of these processes from the main Calibre application

(both are also available as standalone)

Is it possible, that both are just off screen? (task manager will show them running)??
