Every time I clicked on the shortcut it would update again. I can download to my Android tablet but I cannot download to my PC (Win 10). My existing books are still available, just no new books.

I called Amazon Kindle help line and was told they are no longer supporting Kindle for PC. If I want something for my PC I have to buy it from the Microsoft store. None of the programs there claim to support KFX (mobi, pdf and epub only).

It looks like you will no longer be able to download any Kindle books to your PC.
See the first post in this thread. Kindle for PC isn't going away, but it is moving to forcing KFX format.
