Hi, I previously used Sigil + kindlegen in the past and it worked great, really excellent and thanks for the development work.

I'm coming to reinstall it on a new PC and having a bit of trouble. Here's the steps so far:
- Windows 10 64-bit
- Installed Sigil (v1.5.1 - ok)
- Installed Amazon Kindle Previewer 3 (v3.53.0 - ok)
- Downloaded kindlegen from GitHub (kindlegen-3.1.1.zip - ok)
- in Sigil: Edit > Preferences > Plugins:
- tick 'Use bundled python'
- click 'Add Plugin', select the zip file from windows downloads folder
= "Error: Plugin not a valid Sigil plugin."

I'm sure there's probably something obvious I've missed, any reason why the plugin won't install?

Cheers.
