I cannot open the Calibre program
Hai. Someone new here. Happy new year everyone. So I tried using Calibre for the first time. I wanted to have a pdf from of my Kindle book to make my life easier however Calibre isn't making my life a cup of tea.
It keeps giving me " Bad Database Location on Install" Can anyone with a gentle soul help me? |

Hello @Syu
Where did you install Calibre? Is it installed on your local drive, maybe c:\ drive? Where did you point Calibre for your ebook folder? Is it on a local drive also or on a network? |
