Just installed update now books won't convert
Hi all
I've just installed the latest update now books won't convert.
Is there anything I can do to make it better?
Cheers,
C

What OS.
Did you try uninstalling?
Then get a FRESH update file from the official source and try again

Uninstall and download the version you were using before?

No, I think the suggestion was to try to download a new file. Occasionally, the downloaded file gets corrupted in the download - so the idea is maybe you got a bad file the first time around.

Uninstalling will leave your settings and library alone, so there's no harm in doing it.

There is nothing wrong with the current version (no flood of reports) which leads me to believe: Corrupted download.

In one case (in 3+ years) something got left behind in the Calibre2 folder that caused problems on an upgrade.

It does not hurt to delete the calibre2 folder AFTER you have uninstalled the proper way.
