I only realised this was happening when I tried to install 9.6.0 from the version I updated to a couple of days ago.

It's still happening for me in 9.6.0 on Windows.

On Linux, it seems to exit cleanly.

FWIW, on Windows, I never saw that happen again since 9.5.101.

Ah.... the install must have failed. On start up, it's 9.5.101. Let me try again!

Unfortunately repair didn't work:

I'll try uninstall/reinstall.

No, no difference after uninstall / reinstall.

This is what I see whilst it's running:



When I exit, one of the "calibre-parallel.exe" processes exits but the other stays, along with the main process.

Are you sure you've not enabled the calibre systray icon? It could be actually running on your system tray.

(on Windows) I had a long running instance of calibre (since 9.6 update) and it seemed to be running slowly. After quitting it would not start up (don't remember error box).

Task Manager showed 'calibre worker process' still running. Killed that, and calibre started up and running normally.
