Dealing with Kindle ebooks in calibre

[Martinoptic]

I found powershell a pain to run until I discovered I could run it from a bat file. One can do almost anything with both.

And try to remember that I am a bit of a command line fan.

Would you please create the powershell script to open another tab? Thanks.

I am leaving that as a exercise for the student. Unless I feel a need for this in my personal use, I'm not willing to spent time on the task.

True, I love my quick access list and use it a lot. In this case I prefer a shortcut because I can rename it to include the word kindle and position it next to the kindle app. A link on the quick access would just show "content" and can't be renamed (without changing the folder name as well) and I would likely forget what is at that link because I wouldn't be using it frequently.

Hello ~ Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong? I'm on Windows 11, using Calibre 9.9 with plugin DeDRM 10.0.3 and the MS Kindle app ver 1.0.16188. I take my .azw book from the file @ C:Users\me\AppData\Local\Packages\AMZNKindle.Amazo nKindleReadingApp_m1sc522ngdk36\LocalState\Classic \Conten and it's still locked.* I take an older book from the older kindle pc folder and it works.

Any suggestions?
