What OS are you using? If it's an old version of Windows and your computer is 64-bit compatible, upgrade to Windows 10 64-bit.

No worries I was just wondering if anyone had done some workaround is all. I have 3 PC running at the house two are w10 and one is w7 which my wife using and she is kind of loath to leave w7 as she has some older programs she uses when doing her writing that just don't do well any anything beyond w7.
I just have her using calibre on my PC for now. Btw her PC is a ryzen 3600x running w7_64. Before anyone says that's not possible it is indeed possible to make a USB w7 installation disk with the drivers required to make windows 7 run fine and dandy on ryzen. I made w7 usb stick just for that for her PC and added the required drivers to it and even for fun tried it on my PC running 5800x ryzen and it worked super fine too though like I said that was just for fun and I installed w10 a few days later when I was done testing stuff since its a media/vr gaming PC.

Hmm might have her try this see if she happy with that, it's mostly just so she doesn't have to go through my PC and can add remove book herself independently.
I just found it odd as her previous paperwhite was detected fine by calibre on w7, it's just this new 11th gen one that doesn't get detected and we were quite happy with the older version of calibre as it did what we need it to do and worked fine as well with my ole kindle keyboard.
Thanks for the replies!
