https://www.microsoft.com/store/productId/9wzdncrfj33h
3. There should be a list of files. You want the one named:
BarnesNoble.Nook_1.11.0.4_x86__ahnzqzva31enc.appx
It's 50.94 MB in size. I right clicked on the link, then "save link as" to save a copy to my hard drive.
4. Double-click on the file to install. (Scan the file with your security software and/or upload it to VirusTotal if you're at all concerned about the source. Everything was clean when I did this in February.)
5. Open the Nook app. Log into your B&N account and download your books to your library.
6. To find the epubs on your computer, make sure hidden files are shown in Windows Explorer and navigate to C:\Users\"YourUsername"\App Data\Local\Packages\BarnesNoble.Nook_ahnzqzva31enc \LocalState
The epub files will have random numbers for the names.
7. If the files are DRM-protected, you should be able to drop them in Calibre with the proper plugins and free them. I'm not too savvy in that department, but others should be able to point you in the right direction if you have any questions there.
Hope this helps! Good luck!

Hello, I was able to install the x64 and x86 Visual C++ packages (well, the x86 one intially gave me an error about there being additional data, or something? but then the x64 one installed fine and I tried installing x86 again and it seemed to install fine then) and the Nook app via these instructions on W11, but when I went to download book(s), it gives me an error saying "A connection to the internet is not available. Please check your network connection and try again" despite the fact that I have a connection and the Nook app can obviously use it since it shows books, including the sample(s) I have I'm trying to download in the user interface and it let me sign in.
Has anybody else had this issue?
