Windows Error
Hi. I am new here and not very computer savvy - so asking me to change anything in my computer inner workings would be like asking me to start my computer on fire. I have been using Calibre for a couple years, just upgraded to the latest version, and now I get this error message:
Failed to start worker process Traceback (most recent call last): File "site-packages\caliber\utils\ipc\pool.py", line 197, in start_worker File "site-packages\caliber\utils\ipc\pool.py", line 185, in create_worker File "site-packages\caliber\utils\ipc\pool.py", line 71, in start_worker File "site-packages\caliber\utils\ipc\simpe_worker.py", line 160, in start_pipe_worker File "subprocess.py", line 710, in __init__ File "subprocess.py", line 958, in _execute_child (???????? WHAT!? - my comment) WindowsError: [Error 2] The system cannot find the specified PLEASE tell me how to fix this - in very plain language so I don't ruin my computer. I have an HP Windows 10 laptop, by the way. Thank you. |

At the moment, we don't have enough information to help you, additionally, as theducks said, the incorrect spelling of the application name is slightly suspicious. Last edited by eschwartz; 07-17-2016 at 10:07 AM. Reason: typos |
