calibre 7.23 won't launch following update

[Lark]

I have been having issues with my drives on my computers, so after getting a Kobo Clara for Christmas and finally getting back the drive with my ebooks, I got Calibre to come up, and it told me there was an update. I loaded the update and have been unable to launch Calibre ever since. I've uninstalled, reinstalled, no go.

C:\Users\drago>calibre-debug -g
calibre 7.23 embedded-python: True
Windows-10-10.0.26100-SP0 Windows ('64bit', 'WindowsPE')
('Windows', '10', '10.0.26100')
Python 3.11.5
Windows: ('10', '10.0.26100', 'SP0', 'Multiprocessor Free')

EXE path: C:\Program Files\Calibre2\calibre-debug.exe

ImportError: Module use of python310.dll conflicts with this version of Python.

Now what?

I would suggest uninstalling calibre (this will not affect your library or preferences), deleting the Calibre2 directory from Program Files and then re-installing calibre 7.23.

Could it be the path has Python before calibre and thus the wrong version of Python is being picked up?

That seems to have done the trick! Thank you!
