Hi!
I've gone through all the solutions I've found so far (uninstall/reinstall, repair, windows start mode, cascading windows, emptying temp folder, deleting metadata files) and no luck: starting Calibre gives a splash screen, then just the icon on the task bar (hovering over which previews a black rectangle).
Did not try removing the DeDRM plug-in, as can't open the program to do so.
Waiting - even for hours/overnight - changes nothing.
Debug results gave this:

Any ideas are very welcome - thank you!
