Right-clicking and using "open with" or double-clicking MOBI files or using the Open With calibre plugin to open non-Amazon MOBI books with the Kindle for PC app won't work with v1.9.0 or v1.9.1. You have to physically copy the MOBI in question to the "My Kindle Content" folder yourself, for the app to view/recognize it.

This was supposedly a programmer's oversight and that's why the v1.9.1 update is no longer available from their website. They've reverted to v1.8.3 in the meantime. The next version is supposed to fix the issue when it gets released.
