This does not happen with every transition to a new chapter. I am running on a Windows 10 Home system (Dell Inspiron 5759).

There is some program on your computer that is deleting the temporary files
calibre uses out from under it. Typical culprits are "cleaner" or "computer
speedup" type programs. For example, the program CCleaner automatically deletes
temporary files more than a few hours old. Find and disable that program and
you will be fine. Alternatively, you can tell calibre to use a different
folder for its temporary files, which will hopefully not be noticed by the
cleaner program. To do so, set the CALIBRE_TEMP_DIR environment variable, as
described here:
