That seems rather odd. I just connected my Kindle PW4 to my computer, clicked on Add Books in calibre, browsed to \documents\Downloads\Items01 and selected 3 KFX files. Clicked on Open and they were added to calibre. No muss, no fuss. Usual smaller B&W cover images but then they get replaced during editing the metadata. Converted one to ePub using From KFX and it opened in Sigil without the complaints about missing DOCTYPEs, etc. that a calibre conversion pops up.

I was wondering why we are suddenly posting in thread that was last active in 2017 but necroposting can be fun.

And to respond to JSWolf's reply, you do not need the KFX Output plugin to import KFX files since it is only needed when creating KFX files.
