Updated calibre and now library not found

Updated and it doesn't find the library nor let me pick a new spot. All my ebooks and files are still there. Here's the error message I get. I've tried everything, whats the glitch? How do I fix?

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "calibre\gui2\main.py", line 323, in initialize_db
File "calibre\db\legacy.py", line 192, in __init__
File "calibre\db\legacy.py", line 46, in create_backend
File "calibre\db\backend.py", line 548, in __init__
File "calibre\db\backend.py", line 2212, in ensure_trash_dir
PermissionError: [WinError 5] Access is denied: 'C:\\meehow\\Kindle\\.caltrash'


Thanks.

Try turning off your AV. If that doesn't work, try safe mode.
