Isn’t there already a 10.0.14 fork?

DeDRM 10.0.14 is only needed for Kindle for PC 2.8.0. And if you've got an E-ink Kindle that hasn't received 5.18.5 firmware (10th gen and older), then you don't need to mess with that at the moment. Nothing is working for Kindles on 5.18.5 and up yet.

Awesome, that was the issue! I was using the latest stable version, which was 10.0.3. I went ahead and downloaded and installed the beta version (10.0.9) and that did the trick.

As I said, this will be a big help getting books that are only available on Amazon. Even after getting my Kobo Clara BW, I still bought all my ebooks from Amazon since I could download them to my computer and use Calibre to manage them. Once they stopped allowing that, I didn't even bother to look for other alternative ways to do it. Hopefully Amazon doesn't try to find a way to block this current method.

Thanks again!
The latest stable is 10.0.9.

DeDRM tools for ebooks

This is a fork of Apprentice Harper's version of the DeDRM tools. Apprentice Harper said that the original version of the plugin is no longer maintained, so I've taken over, merged a bunch of open PRs, and added a ton more features and bugfixes.

The latest stable (released) version is v10.0.3 which can be downloaded here. The latest beta is v10.0.9, as a release candidate for v10.1.0. It can be downloaded here.
Maybe 10.0.9 is showing as a stable version from another source?

Sure, that's what it says. But it's wrong. It's just never been updated.

Try re-downloading the KFX.

noDRM deliberately kept 10.0.9 listed as "pre-release" to hopefully extend its useful period. It's been that way for a couple years now. Even the latest alpha release from noDRM is almost a year old now.

Even the alpha release works well. 10.0.3 is too old. You need at least 10.0.9. I run the alpha version. The alpha version is the one with the current code.

Yes, what I was saying was that even the current noDRM alpha release at almost a year old could basically be considered "stable". New development has moved on to Sats' fork.

I like to make sure I have the latest and best version of the DeDRM plugin. I feel bad bothering people by coming her to ask about it. I'd like to learn to track it on my own.

I have multiple GitHub pages bookmarked, including ones from noDRM and Satsuoni, but I'm not sure which is the best to use to stay up-to-date:

https://github.com/noDRM/DeDRM_tools/releases
https://github.com/Satsuoni/DeDRM_tools/releases

Someone recently pointed me to a page for noDRM's alpha version. If I understand correctly, this page is automatically updated, which means it should always have the latest version? Is that right? If so, should this be my go-to?

Satsuoni's tool is needed for the specific case of using the latest Kindle for PC. Otherwise, all you need is the noDRM's alpha version.

I assume if the only download from Amazon for Kindle is book_asset.db then there is no chance of converting this to an epub.

I cannot find a .AZW anywhere with the correct download date.

This is Kindle for PC? Which version? And when was the book published?

And the book has been downloaded and can be read in the app? The .azw file should be there.
