Error Converting CBC

[KingZorc]

I followed the manual to create a CBC and Calibre throws errors when trying to preview it and convert it to something else.

calibre, version 5.4.2
ERROR: Loading book failed: Failed to open the book at C:\Users\Administrator\Calibre Library\Unknown\Unknown.cbc. Click "Show details" for more info.

According to that error there is no comics.txt file in your cbc

Except there is one and is formatted exactly like the manual says to.

Well then open a bug report and attach the file causing the issues.
