Help - Uninstalling a Calibre 5.3.0
After uninstalling Calibre 5.3.0 (2020), the file is still located in my Windows 10 app registry (it didn't uninstall correctly). Please advise. I also was a paid subscriber until this happened.

Please advise on how to correct this issue.

A 'paid subscriber' to what? Calibre is free open source software.

What Operating System are you using - Linux, MacOS or Windows? And which version?

Uninstall (calibre) never remove settings or the Library. If you want those truely gone, you need to us the File Manager to remove those folders.
AFTER the basic Uninstall.
Then use a registry cleaner. IMHO a bit of over kill. as those entries are benign (as the rest of Calibre is)

Weren't there douchebags offering Calibre on the Windows store for $$$? I hope the OP didn't fall for one. Worst part is that I think it's technically legal. But still douchey.

Worse than that they are selling a tutorial on using Calibre

I donated to Calibre development when I got it.

What I am looking for is Calibre 5.3.0 (2020) so that I can reinstall it, and then uninstall it. Hopefully, that will help MS find the file it can't seem to find to uninstall it correctly.
