I use Kindle for PC 2.1 because this version allows Japanese books to be downloaded as AZW3.
Last year, I executed "disable_k4pc_download.bat." In the past, every time I launched Kindle for PC, the installer for the newer version was downloaded to "AppData\Local\Amazon\Kindle," but it failed to execute successfully.
Today, I noticed that no installer was downloaded when I started Kindle for PC. The last modified date of "AppData\Local\Amazon\Kindle" was March 31, 2025. This suggests that Amazon has stopped forcing updates from April onward, at least for version 2.1.
The "disable_k4pc_download.bat" script changes the "updates" folder in "AppData\Local\Amazon\Kindle" into a file named "updates." I tested restoring it, but the forced update did not occur.
