  • see third and fourth items in calibre User Manual: FAQ: Miscellaneous
  • try running calibre in a Windows Safe Mode session
  • try running calibre with --ignore-plugins switch - see calibre command
  • try uninstall/fresh download/reinstall - a fresh install won't change your libraries or preferences/plugins/customisations. However, the Miscellaneous link I've provided includes a section about backup if you want ot 'play safe'
