Laura,
You mentioned that I can use Kindle for PC with new books. I currently run KfPc v1.17.1, which had worked with the original DeDRM . I was able to download books in that app, and then import in to Calibre. However, more recently published books now show an error msg when attempting to download: "Kindle app requires an update to download". Are you saying that if I install an more recent verision of KfPC, I will be able to download azw ebook files, and then import into Calibre? TIA Ed |

Thank you for the response and information. I'll back up, and then update.

Today I came upon a book (published in May 2024) that couldn't be downloaded with the Bluestacks method - I got the error message saying that I needed to update the Android app. Books published in April still download and can be deDRMed.
So it seems this method will stop working soon enough, as new books can't be downloaded with it. The Kindle for PC method still works with new books. And the Download & Transfer method, of course. |

Still, this was the first time for me that a book has required the Android app to be updated, so who knows what's going on. |

The only thing I noticed was the relatively large file size. But other books in the series have the same large size and they downloaded just fine with the Bluestacks method. |

Ah, good to know it's happened before - it was the first time for me. Nothing to do with the publication date, then.
