If you're using unswindle.pyw, you *don't* need labba's patch. These are mutually incompatible approaches. (I note because you appear from the screenshot to be trying to use both.)

Cabbages, I left a comment for you on your blog, also downloaded and tried the script, but I'm lost at the part where you "put those kids together" (I'm assuming this means the two scripts). I'm also confused about the .pyw extension. Everything else I have has extension .py.

Sorry, I know this is really basic stuff, but...

Yes - I tried it. XP/SP3 - Got this error after the K4PC splash screen...

Traceback (most recent call last):

DebuggerError: could not read memory

Don't know enough about it to know what to do next...

Yes, I tried both but not together. I tried yours 1st but can't understand your instructions. when I double clicked on unswindle.pwy, I get the following errors:


Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Mobi Books\unswindle.py", line 628, in gui_main
unswindler = Unswindler()

File "C:\Mobi Books\unswindle.py", line 556, in _get_exe_path
regkey = winreg.OpenKey(system, KINDLE_REG_KEY)
WindowsError: [Error 2] The system cannot find the file specified

Oh, like the directions at the top of the script say, just put the mobidedrm.py script in the same directory as unswindle.pyw. That's all it means.

Things with a .py extension run in a console version of the Python interpreter. Things with a .pyw run in a non-console version, which means you don't get an ugly console window showing up for no reason. That's the only difference.

Sure -
I had two books in K4PC - I think one was a Topaz file - your script could not find a PID.
I deleted it and now have a file I am sure is a Mobi file.
If I open K4PC first, then run your script, I get the error Failed to determine book path. If K4PC is not running, I get the error I posted above.

I misplaced a line which was supposed to catch that error more gracefully, but it looks like you potentially didn't have Kindle For PC installed when you ran the script? Otherwise it means my attempt at handling non-en_US versions of Windows may have failed. Could you try again, after confirming that you have Kindle For PC fully installed, and that .mobi books open in it?
