9.18 (and Sigil) fail to start

$

9.18 and Sigil (6.2 and 6.902beta) have both started misbehaving (Vista 32 bit PC)

Both were working fine, and then Sigil would start and the exit immediately

Calbre was a little better; I can open it now, but 'Bulk Convert' opens a dialog, but just clicking on Convert causes an immediate exit. Same for Edit Metadata.

Restarted PC, uninstalled / reinstalled both several time in different orders.

No difference.

Figured out how to start Calibre in debug mode, the the last entry in the log file is for opening a book. Crashs without adding anything when I go to edit metadata.

Exported and deleted TrollTech from registry, and Calibre recreates keys as expected.

I has MS 2010 C++ redistributable 10.0.40219 but unisntalled to to let Calibre install a slightly older version but no difference

The only thing 'funny' was when I was installing 9.18 there was a message I'd never seen before about files / serices in use and to restart PC afterwards. Never had that before.

Everything else on the PC is working fine

ANY ideas or suggestions .... please :help:

Paul
