But I am all set up in calibre with Alf & Kindle conversion working well.

My problem is, if i wipe my pc..how do I get calibre back to converting with alf & the correct kindle for pc app again?

I did it years ago and cant remember now

Whats my best option?
1. See the calibre FAQ How do I move my calibre data from one computer to another?

2, Do a clean install of windows with you computer disconnected from the internet---Highly recommend!!!!

Windows 10 Home now forces you to sign in with a Microsoft account—unless you disconnect from the internet first. Microsoft has always wanted you to sign in with a Microsoft account, but now it’s going even further.

The option to sign in with a classic local Windows account was always rather hidden behind an “Offline Account” option. Now, we’ve confirmed that it’s vanished entirely from Windows 10’s setup process.
