CannConnecting Kindle Paperwhite to Calibre under Windows 10

Hi,

I recently used the upgrade to Windows 10 and downloaded it. I previously had Windows 7.

I use Calibre 2.47.0 as my ebook manager and now find that when I use the usb cable to connect my kindle to my pc and Calibre so that I can add books to my kindle the device does not show up in Calibre yet shows as drive F on my computer.

When I connect the usb cable from kindle to pc I get the noise which indicates a connection and it shows in the Safely Remove Hardware area as Eject Amazon Kindle.

When I try to open drive F it gives me this error message.....F:\ The directory name is invalid. F:\ is not accessible. A device attached to the system is not functioning.

I have swapped usb cords to see if that would make a difference, no joy. Can anyone help me solve my problem or know of another ebook manager that works with Windows 10 without problems.

I have reinstalled Windows 10

I read through the thread http://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...=264201&page=2 trying the things mentioned.

I found under device manager a yellow triangle under portable devices, I did the update driver which came back as the latest driver, did the scan for hardware changes nothing found and then I uninstalled the driver hoping windows 10 would search for a new driver when i reconnect my Kindle, nothing, I found a windows 10 driver for Kindle, downloaded and installed that, nothing. The Device Manager now shows the F:\ under Portable Devices without the yellow triangle however I still cannot get it to connect to Calibre. I have done the normal install and reboots after each function to no avail. I found a couple of the USB controllers updated drivers the Intel (R) 6 series/200......

Can anyone help please.
