Can't convert azw3 file in pdf.

[luigi rovatti]

I think it's not a problem specific to the file I tried to convert, but to Calibre itself. So, without further ado, here's the code:

calibre, version 4.19.0
ERRORE: Eccezione non gestita: <b>IOError</b>:[Errno 13] Permission denied: u'C:\\Users\\almark164\\Documents\\Biblioteca di calibre\\Elizabeth Kay\\7 Lies (1268)\\7 Lies - Elizabeth Kay.pdf'

something is blocking that file (or folder) during conversion.

Usual suspects are security apps

Solved it. It was indeed my AV. I needed only to show an exception to that antivirus. Thanks again anyway.

Yea Team!
Always glad to hear back (either way) on a trouble call
