The BlueStacks Multi-Instance Manager can clone a virtual machine. That allows you to make a backup in case something goes wrong with a future change. |

Workaround to get high resolution image downloads. This is an anomaly with Bluestacks that refuses KFX downloads, for now at least. So I suggest you keep a Bluestacks version that has the old 4.16 app which does not support KFX. To get high res do this:
This will NOT work on Android Emulator or on a Nexus7 tablet, it probably won't work anywhere else than Bluestacks. Last edited by DuckieTigger; 04-15-2023 at 04:33 PM. Reason: fixed small typo |

It was also nice to see that Amazon has updated the error message when trying to download a newer ebook using K4PC. Last edited by DNSB; 03-11-2023 at 10:37 PM. |

Tried the clone and update K4A and added the AZW6 Image Merge plugin to calibre and I ended up with a 2400x3667 pixel cover image though the other 32 images stayed the same size.

I wonder if enough high-res images can make an eReader crash. My Kobos have trouble with the Internet Archive's multi-layer PDF scans.

Kindles are pretty robust. I created a 400+mb KFX comic out of a 1000 page PDF, and it displays faster than the PDF renderer on my Oasis3. It is more stable than the KFX print replica renderer that would crash every 10-15 pages. The comic and PDF never crashed.
