What I am going to do for now until all plugins (except DeDRM) that I use are updated is to keep 4.23 fully installed and install the portable 5.x. So can test the plugins when Py3 versions come out. There re two left that I need.

I'm also going to keep 4.23 on the laptop I'm using now and install 5.x on a new laptop arriving next week. So I can compare both 64-bit versions. |

You could install 5.x as a portable version to try. I'll be installing 5.x as a portable once any of the remaining plugins is converted to test.

Yes, but I already have portable 3.x, because I like the old viewer more than the 4.x version (the 4.x version is still slower in opening a book for the first time than the 3.x version, but opening books only once to check the formatting is my main use case. So I find the 3.x viewer better suited for my workflow).

Uninstall the 5.0.0, then install the older 4.23. I've done this way and all plugins work like before. Means that all settings and plugins were kept during uninstall/new install.

Jon, would you please stop telling people who already know what they're doing that they HAVE to uninstall a version of calibre portable that they clearly don't have to uninstall? Thanks.

That is very odd. I was able to quickly uninstall 5, reinstall 4.23 and DEDRM worked fine. did not have to reinstall the plugin either. perhaps a cclean run? |

I'd be careful with tools like CCleaner or Geek Uninstaller - they may end up removing your application data folder so all your plugins and settings disappear.

Certainly one should also be careful. but i have used ccleaner and calibre forever now and never had an issue with it removing anything of the sort.

The script I ran deleted 5.0.0 before 4.23.0 download and install.

Note: both resources/ scripts and the .exe do the same thing -- all three just set the environment variables from https://manual.calibre-ebook.com/cus...ment-variables before running calibre. |
