I have used this plug-in before on my Mac successfully. I have recently switched to pc and can't get it working.

This is with Windows 10 version 1709:

I installed the DeDRM 6.5.5 plug-in into Calibre. I added my Kindle serial number. The books I imported didn't get stripped of their DRM.

I figured something might be wrong with either Calibre or the plug-in. I uninstalled Calibre and installed the latest version (3.18). I also downloaded the plug-in again.

To my great surprise, the DeDRM plugin was already installed and it also remembered my Kindle's serial number. I suppose that when I uninstalled the older Calibre, not everything was deleted and the new Calibre added the plug-in on its own. I don't care for that sort of thing.

I proceeded to remove the plug-in and installed the freshly downloaded one instead. Imported books still do not get stripped of their DRM.

What am I missing?
