When I attemp to view a book with Kindle prewier doesn't start the Kindle prewier. Otherwise, works well if I try open the epub format with Sigil. When i had Windows Vista it works perfetly. Now with a new PC wit Windows 10 isn't posible. What am I doing bad?

@juangra - in Windows,

In Control Panel->All Control Panel Items->Programs and Features, check that you have the Kindle Preview software installed
In Control Panel->All Control Panel Items->Default Programs->Set Associations, check that the Kindle Preview software is the default handler for ePubs

In Calibre

Check Preferences->Behaviour->Use internal viewer for->EPUB, is unchecked

That should result in ePubs always opening in the Kindle Preview software when an ePub is viewed in calibre.
