Interesting. I tried 3 4 different ways.

1. I copied the contents of the K:\documents\Downloads\Items01 directory to a directory on my desktop so the filename.kfx files and directoryname.sdr directories were present. I used Add books and selected all the KFX files in the directory. calibre had no issue with importing the KFX files and DRM was removed. The only real issue for me was that the cover images for the KFX books were smaller and grayscale.
2. Pretty much the same as the first item but didn't copy the Items01 directory to my computer first and simply added from the directory on the Kindle. No noticeable differences from the files in the first item.
3. Switched to Device view in calibre's GUI. Selected the books I wanted, right-clicked and clicked on Add books to library. No problems other than the already noted cover image issue.
4. Loaded up BlueStacks and ran Kindle for Android. Downloaded 5 books and then copied them to a staging directory. This method yields KF8/azw3 files (the majority) with the occasional mobi file. Added to calibre and again no issues but covers for the the 5 books were higher resolution and in colour.
