Calibre W7 runtime error

[Cosworth]

I opened Calibre today and it prompted me to update. It ran the update then gave a runtime error and force closed.

I have tried restarting, checking for registry logs, and this is all I have

Problem signature:

Not sure what is going on but I cant actually get into Calibre anymore. I havent changed anything since the last time I uploaded books.

Thanks for the quick response. I had tried that originally but didnt look for the Metafile or think to log anything. The metafile doesnt exist so I re-ran it and ran into the same issue.



Memory Error:

Well I did some more reading all over the forum and I re-named my ebook folder and rolled back to 0.8.63 and it seemed to be happier. Not sure if there is a corrupt book in there or something on the newer versions. Ill see what I can do.

You have a book in your library with a huge number of authors, that is causing calibre to run out of memory when trying to display that book.
