calibre viewer only shows cover page

I am using calibre 4.18 but since the last couple of updates 4.16/4.17 when i try to open books in calibre viewer it only loads the cover page. Dont know what has happened, I have not changed any of the preferences etc. I dont use it to read but to check formats of books or for a quick look at before i download to kindle to re-read. I prefer mobi format but have tried converting to different formats but makes no difference. If anyone knows what's going on can you please help. Many thanks:

nothing, it just cover page nothing else - no scroll bar etc, if you click on image it just enlarges and scroll bars appear but only scroll to bottom of cover page.

What format are the books, i.e. EPUB, MOBI, AZW3 etc?

If EPUB or AZW3, can you edit the book contents by pressing 'T'?
