Just my 2 cents, but if the book is "Maldito invento dum baronete", it looks like a children's picture book so basically images into a PDF. I rarely get those, but I think they are .azw4 or KFX, so search for those extensions. You may need to resort to using the K4PC/K4Mac method.
Can someone confirm or correct me?

Last time I tried to download a 2024 book which was a kf8/azw3 with the old Android app, it didn't work. Don't know if older books still download. I haven't bothered to try the update to the newer Android app. Since I can use other methods, I'm just sticking with those for now.

The sample of the book downloads used K4A 8.5 as an prc (azw3) ebook. Using K4PC 2.4.0, the sample downloads but attempting to open it gives a "This book cannot be opened. Please remove it from your device and redownload it." It can be imported to Calibre from either download and seems to display as expected with calibre's viewer. It is not available for eInk Kindles.

BTW, attached you have a screenshot of the files downloaded by Kindle 8.51.1.0 on Bluestacks.

Thanks!
Interesting. Looks like 8.51 on BS now downloads kfx? Does it work with kfx input and alpha nodrm?

For me, 8.51.1.0(1.3.272119.0) is still downloading .prc files which import as .azw3 and rarely as .mobi. BS reports it's version as 5.11.1.1004 P64 since I've refused any offer to upgrade.

I just tried too, a new book. Also downloaded as .azw3. Not sure how @ppiresnl managed to download anything as .kfx. Sounded weird when he updated it to the latest version. I don't think he used the hi-res workaround. Possibly 4.16 offers to download the newest version, which you wouldn't want. I only tested it with the specific version I linked to, no app store to be able to mess with the app.

If I installed the Kindle app 2.4.0 70904, then downloaded my books after I had installed the plugins, how do I know that the DRM was removed?

Once the books are in Calibre, I can see they are listed in a file called "Calibre Library" by author's name. Do I still need to keep the downloads that are in the file labeled My Kindle Content? Thanks.

If you can view the books in the calibre viewer, the DRM has been removed.

Once they're in calibre without DRM, there's no need to keep the original downloads. But you should probably remove the downloads through the Kindle app rather than directly in the Finder.

Hey @Ma'am-I-Am, it worked! Thanks a lot for your support!

FYI, I followed the instructions for K4PC from @Sirtel's page and downloaded Kindle for PC 2.4.0 (aka 2.4.70904), DeDRM v10.0.9 beta/RC, and the KFX Conversion Input Plugin. Then, I just downloaded the book and it came as .azw. Finally, I opened the .azw file on Calibre and it opened the book as KFX
