I'm sure I did Steps 1 through 5 correctly. The issue is installing Python 2.7 and the ScreenSavers Hack.

I thought Python installed correctly, so I deleted the file (kindle-python-0.15.N-r15529.tar.xz) from the root directory and replaced it with another file (kindle-linkss-0.25.N-r15529.tar.xz). I then searched for ;installHtml and expected a hacked screensaver confirmation and creation of a linkss folder. But that didn't happen.

Here's what I see in explorer after installing Python 2.7 and then installing the ScreenSaver hack.
