Win 8 Calibre?

Does Caliber have a Windows 8 version yet?

I just found where the Kindle eBooks are stored in Windows 8. For me its in:

Computer \ Data (D : ) \ My Documents \ My Kindle Content

There four files represent each eBook: AZW, MBP, PHI, APNX. Some have a fifth file: LPR.

With that information you should be able to get Caliber to access those files. I have most programs stored on C :, an SSID, and most data stored on D :, a SATA.

I am using the Window 8 version of K4PC 1.10.6 (40500).

That is NOT the same file structure as Windows 7 but now you know the locations and file structures.

The OP said the Win 7 version of K4PC did not run properly in Win 8.

By the way, all my eBooks had to be re-downloaded into my K4PC for Win 8. The files moved from my Win 7 PC did not allow access with K4PC for Win 8. That is the reason some folks can't get the files to appear in K4PC for Win 8. They MUST be re-downloaded.
