Importing that will not work since calibre sees ".md" as an indication that the book is in markdown format instead of KFX.
This can be confusing because the Windows File Explorer does not show file extensions by default so a file with the extension ".azw.md" will appear there as ".azw". There is a setting in File Explorer that can be checked to show extensions. I recommend that be done to avoid this sort of problem in the future.

So using the "Add Books" option in Calibre is the wrong way cause it has ALWAYS given me the KFX, MD after import. Someone on Reddit suggested a different way to import so I am gonna try that and see if it helps.
