By any chance do you have some sort of 'helper utility' installed (not vanilla Windows)?

Never mind. The file viewer has not been fixed and is still slow when reformatting the text after each edit (which began with version 4.0). After each edit, I'm still seeing all text with no .css file being used, and then it jumps to using the current stylesheet.css file.

Thanks for the reply. If I type in s I have to click before I can type another letter. I guess I will just go back to 4.1 and hope the next update fixes whatever my system has a problem with.

Who said it was a "big deal"? Something in the File Viewer is broke, and it started being broke in v4.0, so I'm simply reporting the bug. If you don't care about this particular bug, then disregard my posts about it. It's as simple as that!

Basically, it happens when I use the mouse to click on the Tags field, nudge the pointer down out of my way (but still over where the dropdown will be once it appears), set the mouse aside to type, and use the down-arrow to scroll instead of reaching for the mouse again. But yes, I can still reproduce the bug quite reliably over here. The pointer location was the missing datum. As noted, this machine is running 32-bit Win10, and I have not tested the behavior on either the 64-bit or portable builds. |

It's become a big enough deal, with the unreasonable slowness in the File Preview window, in addition to the editor crashing periodically (the Editor window disappears suddenly for no reason), and a few other things, that I'm going back to 3.48 and will wait a much longer time before I upgrade again. There are just too many bugs right now for me to continue using version 4.2.

unable to open 4.2.0 - Error 1114
Hi, after installing latest calibre version, I am unable to open calibre at all, getting an error regarding loading DLL and Error 1114. Has anyone had this and fixed it? Love calibre, but it's useless to me right now. Thanks!

Also, if you are on a laptop with dual video chips, switch which video chip gets used by Calibre. I don't have this issue. But then, I'm running Windows 10 with new enough video card drivers. |

My video card is a Nvidia GeForce GT 730 and the latest driver is installed, per Device Manager, at this moment. Thanks for trying, though. |

As for your video card? I seem to remember the GeForce GT 730 was introduced in 2014 and went EOL in spring 2018. I doubt this qualifies as a best hardware available in December 2017. |

@deback, pleas elet us know if that driver helps Calibre 4.2 to work.
One question. Why are you on a 32-bit Windows? |

nVidia EOL'ed 32bit drivers a... good long while ago, so, that probably won't help your case much if you're actually on a 32bit install.
