I keep getting an error communicating with device message even after

Software: Calibre 6.9.0
Device: Fire 7 2022
Device Windows 11 Laptop

1. Uninstalling and Reinstalling Calibre
2. Removing SD
3. Reinserting and Reformatting SD
4. Resetting Fire to Factory settings

Error Code

calibre, version 6.9.0

That is an error listing the files in the device storage. This has been known to happen with some
devices when they contain SD cards. If you remove the SD card, you should be fine. You can try reformatting the card
or using a different card as well.
