In the top level of user storage, as seen over the USB cable when connected to a computer (no jb required):
[list=1][*] UPDATE~.BIN
This file name is one used by the OTA update process, the update_*whatever*.bin is renamed to this name to be processed.
Create a folder by this name - all uppercase, with the ~ and the uppercase extension.
Enter the folder and create a file by the name:
.keepme
Yes, the first character is a period.
Uncertain if any versions of the firmware can detect and circumvent this one.

Hello, I'm trying to do what is described above in a non-jailbroken Kindle Paperwhite 2 with 5.6.5 firmware.
What I did so far was to create a folder named UPDATE~.BIN at "Kindle ( I: )". But when I go to that folder and try to create a file named .keepme, I can't do it, I don't know how to do it.
I went to Microsoft site to discover how do we create a file in Windows 10, they say:

To create a new file on the desktop or in an open folder, right-click a blank area, point to New, and then click the program name for the kind of file you want to create. After the icon appears, double-click it to open the file and begin working.

So I did it. I tried to created a .doc file and a bitmap file. In both cases, when I renamed it to ".keepme", windows says "Type the name of the file". So, I cannot create the file with this name.
Anyone here knows how to do it?
