Hello, everyone,

I am writing here because I am cyclically having problems with my Kindle Oasis version 2019 (10th generation). The problem that occurs is this: the Amazon_cover_bug folder created by Calibre, which is supposed to contain the thumbnail files of the images are sometimes not created, and are not copied to the "secret" folder 'thumbnails'

. Unplugging and plugging the kindle with calibre active doesn't help either, for two reasons: firstly, because I always have the aeroplane mode active; and secondly, because the kindle is apparently loaded in 'Read Only' mode. This happens on two different computers, one with windows 10, the other with windows 11. The firmware is the latest available: 5.16.9.

To get around this problem, I have to restart the kindle by leaving it connected to the PC with calibre active: at which point if I load the books through calibre, it manages to generate the covers in the "Amazon_Cover_Bug" folder and the thumbnails appear regularly.

Even this workaround (restarting the kindle before plugging it in and loading the pictures) stops working after a while, because the device is always loaded in read-only mode, 6 or 7 times that I adopt this workaround.

I tried resetting the kindle to factory settings, and for a while it loads them quietly, and the thumbnails are generated. But after a few times, bang, the problem recurs.

Do you have a solution? Otherwise the device works. Thank you very much!
