Calibre EBook Management Update

[VTECH]

I tried to update Calibre from release 2.85.1 to latest 3.2.1.
After update I cannot start the program getting error-code:126 that
calibre-launcher.dll file cannot be found.
I reviewed all files calibre-launcher.dll is not missing in folder C:\Program Files\Calibre2 .
My operating system is Windows 10 (32-bit ).
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Uninstall, delete C:\Program Files\Calibre2
(or wherever you chose to install calibre). Then re-install. And
dont worry, uninstalling will not affect your books/settings.

Are you suggesting to uninstall completely program Calibre 2.85.1 from disk drive and later to delete any leftover files in folder C:\Program Files\ Calibre2 ?
Also it unclear to me "reinstall". Do you mean installing release 3.2.1 or reinstalling 2.85.1 and updating it to 3.2.1 ?

Sorry folks for not waiting for your following response.
I decided to try on my own with the recommended:

1. Uninstalled Calibre 2.85 program using CCleaner, or any other reliable utility for
cleaning including Windows registry.
2. Deleted "Calibre2" folder with all files to recycle bin.
3. Rebooted the PC.
4. Installed previously downloaded Calibre Management release 3.2.1 in folder"Calibre3"
Everything worked out fine.
5. Deleted "Calibre2" from recycle bin
