  • Delete the contents of the "My Kindle Content" folder within your "Documents" folder.
  • Download version 1.17 of Kindle for PC. It is safest to use the link in this post to download it directly from Amazon, instead of going to a third party site.
  • Install the downloaded Kindle for PC version 1.17.
  • Launch it and check that the option to automatically install updates is still turned off.
  • If asked if you want to update to the new version always reject it.
  • Re-download your books and import into calibre as before.
Thank you jhowell that worked!!!
Been struggling to sort it out for days.
Kept installing different Kindle aps but was no change
I think the secret was deleting everything in the kindle folder as well
You're a star
Fingers crossed more books imported will be ok (eg not imported one by one in folders.
Thanks again
