Calibre 7.19.0 has crashed on Windows 10 and won't restart.

[Evaeiqua]

Calibre crashed on me today and won't restart. I rebooted to no avail. I downloaded the installation file and tried to repair Calibre. That didn't work. I uninstalled and reinstalled Calibre 7.19.0 and no luck. Any suggestions would be great.

I tried calibre-debug -g and got this response.

What happens if you try to launch in Windows' safe mode?

calibre-customize --disable-plugin Goodreads

ownedbycats - I tried safe mode and still nothing. Calibre stops during loading.

Double check the plugin name with:

calibre-customize --list-plugins

If you still can't disable the plugin with the correct name, try uninstalling it with:

calibre-customize --remove-plugin <correct plugin name>
