Hi. You can also get Calibre from my personal dropbox:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/xrawm79eau736ey/Setup_eBook-convert_GUI_x64.exe?dl=1 It will be available for quite some time, so take your time to download. Cheers!

Just a note to those who apparently had difficulties downloading.

You may already know this but perhaps it is worth repeating. With Google Chrome under Windows at least you will be initially blocked from downloading any file with a executable extension I find. This will happen even if the DropBox link ends in 1 to facilitate direct download. The solution is easy however. Find any open Google Chrome page - it may say untitled. Press control J to open the downloads page. This will open a list of all your downloads. Find the relevant download - and then cursor or tab right and the focus will be on Discard because Google will say it is a risk because it is an executable. Tab to keep and press enter on that. Then annoyingly Google will insist on a further warning and you have to tab to Keep anyway and press enter on that. The download will now complete. David G.

You said, "Hi. You can also get Calibre
from my personal dropbox:"
https://www.dropbox.com/s/xrawm79eau736ey/Setup_eBook-convert_GUI_x64.exe?dl=1 I was able to obtain Setup_eBook-convert_GUI_x64 (1).exe and I installed it. However, when I ran the program eBook-convert GUI from the shortcut on my desktop I get the following message: eBook-convert GUI ebook-convert.exe not found in home folder or C:\Program Files (x86)\Calibre2. Please install Calibre or browse for the installation folder by using the "Locate Calibre" button. OK

Hi. I downloaded this file from Victor who offered it for our
use. However, I don't know if this is the real Calibre file as
I've not installed it myself. Give me some time to investigate.
My appologies and Cheers!

That is not the Calibre file, it is the interface to help the accessibility with a screen reader, specifically Jaws. You have to install Calibre from their site and then you have to tell the ebook program where the Calibre executable is located. There is a browse button to locate Calibre in the program when you run it. Even though I accepted all the defaults when I installed Calibre, I still had to tell the program where it was, because the program is defaulting to the wrong location.
