anyway - i just hope Amazon will not activate a killswitch for older Kindle for PC installations.. thats the only way to backup my books currently since the newer versions won't allow you that anymore. |

You also have an eink Kindle listed in your profile. You could use the transfer via computer option to download and back up your Kindle books. No Kindle for PC needed.

because i backup all books i buy from amazon and convert them to mobi / epub by using calibre to be able to read them on all of my devices (Android smartphone, kindle fire, kindle paperwhite, computer) without having internet access. it happend now more often than enough where shops like amazon removed items from the account of people, so i like to have stuff i buy secure on my harddrive. if that would work, that would be a really good alternative when in the future older versions can't download books anymore because amazon drops the support. |

This is the method I generally use. I have an old version of Kindle for PC installed, but rarely use it. |

There is an Engadget article (Windows 11 beta users can start testing Android apps) indicating that one of the few apps currently available to Windows 11 beta testers is the Kindle app.
I am now running Windows 11 on my PC and I will try it out once it is available to non-beta users. |
