Renaming the renderer file was necessary to prevent old versions of Kindle for PC from downloading books in the KFX format. As modern versions only download KFX and this can't be prevented, there's no need to rename the renderer file.
Yes, you just import the AZW file. It should be KFX in calibre - you can convert it to another format, like epub. Last edited by Sirtel; 09-01-2024 at 11:05 PM. |

Thank you. So even though I renamed the renderer file and delivered my book into KFPC with that change made, it should not prevent what I want Calibre to do when I import the .azw file, yes?

I can't convert AWZ4 file - I've installed the latest DeDRM and KindleUpack and still can't get it to work. I don't think it is a Kindle Fire book....
Here is the latest conversion error: Spoiler:

@Gatesway - It is a print replica book, so should transfer to a pdf from azw4 - if you can get rid of the DRM.
It might be one that can't be removed as it looks like a textbook? Last edited by Martinoptic; 09-02-2024 at 08:09 AM. Reason: clarification as to whom I'm replying to. |

If you have a renderer-test file in the Kindle for PC application folder then it is left over from when a previous version of the program was installed and it is unused now. Changing or deleting it will have no effect on anything.

Are you using the DeDRM auto alpha release? That's the latest version with all of the current code.

One other thing to try is deleting all traces of that eBook and download it again. |
