Thanks for that info, then I'll give it more of a try to see what's causing the problem sticking with Calibre 8.11 before going down the rabbit hole of reverting back to 4.23.

I used the deDRM plugin V10.0.9 (RC1 for 10.1.0). I'm not sure how much I can say about which method I used publicly, but there's a video with a method that works perfectly with all Amazon books published before April '25, and a link there to method #2 that works with Amazon books published after April '25. Method 2 needs an older Kindle (which fortunately I still have a 6th Gen Paperwhite stuck at firmware 5.12.2.2), and just drag the book from the Kindle into Calibre and it works perfectly. At least for now.
