Long enough to move a file.

another thought -
Is this an ad supported (I.E: "Special Offers") Kindle?

PS:
That flag filename is:
DO_FACTORY_RESTORE
All capitals, no extension, no contents (which some find hard to do on a Windoze box).

Can you run a Linux LiveCD or Linux in a VM on that PC?
I really have less than zero recent experience with Windows (unless you want to downgrade to Win-2 or Win-3).
My PW3 is also bootlooped(brick?) after "downgrading" device with passcode.
I have tried to mount the sd"x" and sg"x" and got "no medium found".

Hope there is a fix. Thanks.

EDIT: Special Offers enabled
