Yeah, the account files are the same ones that are in the ZIP file. Deleting these (and the "modules" folder, and the "deacsm.json") will get the plugin back into a blank state.

The device name being "WIN11-" I'm assuming you ran ADE on Windows 11? Did you try if Calibre on Windows 11 was able to download books with the imported activation, or did you immediately export it to a ZIP from the Windows Calibre and imported it into Linux?

I have not yet tested my plugin on Windows 11, so it's possible that Microsoft changed something that breaks ADE credential extracting. I'm going to spin up a Windows 11 VM and make a couple tests.

What you could do, if you don't mind using an additional activation on your AdobeID, would be to deauthorize the plugin (either delete the three account files or press Ctrl+Shift+D in the plugin settings) and then try to make a "native" authorization right from Calibre. If that works, then it's probably Windows-11-related.

If you feel comfortable with that, you could also send me that ZIP file in a private message for me to take a closer look (just don't post it here publicly because it will give people access to your AdobeID), maybe I can see something weird in there. But you don't have to do that, I'd understand if you don't want to share that with a stranger.

Or you wait until I tested this in a Windows 11 VM, maybe I'll figure something out.
