Phyton Error query
Hi

In an inspired (not) attempt to try and fix my Calibre problem without actually having to do anything to Calibre I tried a Windows 7 System Restore back to the period just after I loaded 1.48

The system restore I worked perfectly except I know have no working Calibre. When trying to open Calibre I get the following error message

Python function terminated unexpectedly
'NoneType' object has no attribute 'load_style' (Error Code 1)


To probably make matters worse I tried just installing 1.48 again and the message above is after that attempt.

Am I now at the stage where a full uninstall and reinstall is necessary?

I'm just trying to get it sorted today as once i'm back at work tomorrow I won't have any time.

Thanks

Use a specialised uninstaller program for windows like the revo uninstaller.

Well if you absolutely cannot uninstall calibre, simply delete C:\Program Files\Calibre2 (or wherever you installed calibre) using windows explorer.

Then download the calibre portable version which has no installer. Inside the portable version you will find a folder named Calibre, inside that folder will be calibre.exe, simply run that and it should work just like a normally installed calibre.

Thank you again Kovid.

It appears to have uninstalled Calibre now. I deleted everything it threw up so what will be will be.

I'm now taking a back up of my Calibre Library folder which has over 5000 books in it before I try an install again. I'm leaving the original library in the same location it is now in the hope it will pick up the location during the install.

Thanks for your help Kovid. I now have 1.48 installed again with all my books showing. I've lost all my extra plugins though so i'll gradually load those again. I thought that might happen.
