Calibre Updates not working on Windows 8.1
I'm recently back to using Calibre after a few years break. New computer, had to reinstall Calibre. At first I was happy, but now I'm extremely frustrated.
I originally installed 64bit 1.29.0 which worked fine. Then I upgraded to 64bit 1.31.0, which was problematic. The program would start but then one of two things would happen. It would either be totally unresponsive, or stop working after the first click I made. I tried the 32bit version and that didn't help. In the meantime I've also tried 1.33, and that doesn't work. I uninstalled all old versions, cleared out any files in c:\programs and anything in the registry that I could find that was Calbre related. Then I reinstalled 1.29.0. Now that doesn't work. I'm about to pull the plug on the whole thing. Does anyone have suggestions regarding: 1. How to fix Calibre? 2. What other software I should use if I can't get Calibre to work? Thanks. |
