Installing error

Hi
When I try to update the program, the error "error writing to file.... Verify that you have...." appears.
When I go to the indicated directory and create any file, txt, I can do it, so I can access, create and write to the directory.
What can I do to update without first uninstalling the program?
Thanks in advance
Regards

The installation says that it cannot rewrite the file "114f227.rbf" which, by the way, does not exist. This problem has happened to me (I don't remember with which file) on a different computer also with win 10.
The only way I had to resolve the situation was to uninstall the program and install the updated version. Not practical, to say the least.

Hi,

If it is in another location than the default one it is the same error than that thread : https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=341933

My workaround is stop install calibre in another directory than the default location.
Other one seems to do a link from the default location to the one you want.

The library can be elsewhere, only binaries need to be at the default location for the installer to work.

It seems something change in windows some time ago that impact the installer and the way it works.

Regards

Hi
Thank you for the link.
Only through "command line with administrator" I was able to install the update.
Only with the "Caliber" I have this problem. Strange.
