Am nervous about change as I love my books being in calibre.

All I basically want to do I is get the Kobo and side-line books I have, and read them.
As my old kindle doesnt like to charge anymore.
Im an oldie so struggle more nowadays.

My motto is--Don't get old!
You are at Windows 11 already. So being modern (so you can get the best from Calibre) is possible.
1) Simply backup your Libraries to an external drive
2) remember to also backup the configuration folder
3) install Calibre 7.11 (or later for those that find this thread)
4) Replace your old Alf's with NoDRM (https://github.com/noDRM/DeDRM_tools/releases)
5) Add Kobo Utilities and the Extended edition, optionally the KePub... plugins (all except NoDRM are on the Get Plugins menu)

That should be it. Modern and current features (and you have that backup for later 'just in cases')

BTW there are quite a few of us here, that were born before 1960 .
