Load a single book seems to crash

gandor62 · 03-11-2009, 06:55 PM

Just upgraded to 0.5 and running the Windows GUI on Vista.

When I try to add book from a single directory, Calibre completly shuts down.

I made a new folder and copied the book I wanted to it and successfully added by using add books from directories sub folders etc. Tried to load from single directory but calibre crashes before i can select folder.

Any ideas

I"m also running Vista, and just tried loading a book from a single directory.

No problems here.

It shuts down at what point after sowing the file selection dialog or before. Note that you can also drag and drop files into calibre
