Calibre opening epub in editor rather than viewer

https://www.dropbox.com/s/54mmcmg18l...image.png?dl=0

One of my fans is having a hard time reading her .epub ebook because it shows up in this format.

It works great for me on my Calibre desktop but for her it comes up like this.

any advice?

Ronnie

Unless I'm missing something the pic shows the book opened with Calibre's editor and looks how I'd expect. If she's trying to read it with Calibre she should open it with the viewer instead of the editor.

Or someone tweaked the calibre's View->View specific format->Open EPUB With to reference edit-ebook.exe.

Or someone unchecked EPUB from the Preferences->Behaviour->Use internal viewer for list and used Windows Open With to associate EPUB with ebook-edit.exe.

'T' and 'V' are not readily mis-keyed.

Not use Internal viewer (and the OS was set to edit)
Brilliant detective work. Make a lot more sense than fumble fingers T or V
