Unable to Open Imported Kindle Books Giving Error
I haven't imported any new Kindle books into Calibre for awhile. Went to pull some in today and noticed something's wrong.

For starters, no identifying information is showing in Caliber. Title shows file name. Author shows "unknown" & the cover for the book is missing. File size is 0.9mb & format is AZW. When I tried to open the book using the Calibre reader, I got an error message, the content of which is way above my paygrade. Which is to say, I don't understand it. I copied & pasted it to a text file & have attached it.

If any of you kind folks can make any sense of this, I'd be very grateful. Thanks!

The problem is that you are trying to import KFX format eBooks an that's why the error. If you are using Kindle for Windows or OSX, please read the entire thread here.
