MetaData Download Error

MattWaso · 07-24-2022, 12:52 AM

Using Ver. 6.1.0 I get a python error when I try and update a books metadata. Is there an easy fix for this issue? The following is the error data:

calibre, version 6.1.0

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.
