At any rate, this has led to another problem. I have the default CC for Kindle. That's where K4A stores the .azw files. They launch the K4A app when clicked in CC. In the other folder you mention, Chaley, (.com.amazon...) the prc files are stored. CC launches them in Moon+ Reader even when I've cleared all the default reader apps in CC.
That happens because moon+ tells the world that it can handle PRC files, and K4A says nothing. Apparently I need to change CC to offer K4A as a possible reader for prc files in that folder. This is annoying because the amazon app won't accept them anywhere else as far as I know.

Amazon seems to try as hard as they can to screw up any third party use of their app. I am strongly tempted to write off K4A as a lost cause, but I won't because that is what Amazon wants. I personally gave up months ago, stripping DRM from my purchased books and converting them to epub so I can actually use what I buy.
