Paperwhite 3 2015 what am I doing wrong?

Following the wiki https://wiki.mobileread.com/wiki/5_x_Jailbreak

Original Kindle firmware installed = 5.8.1

Step 1: Download PW3 factory_PW3_5.9.6.1_initial firmware
Step 2: # Home -> Menu -> Settings -> Menu -> Update Your Kindle # Confirm # Wait
Step 3: Transfer main-htmlviewer.tar.gz to main directory
Step 4: In search type ;installHtml
Step 5: Transfer Update_jailbreak_hotfix_1.16.N_install.bin
Step 6: # Home -> Menu -> Settings -> Menu -> Update Your Kindle # Confirm # Wait

Upon restart I cannot downgrade the firmware (I want to go back to 5.8.1)
It says Update Error An invalid update file has been loaded onto your device.

I cannot install KUAL-v2.7.21-g3928582-20190724 -> it never shows up in MY LIBRARY

What did I do wrong?
Thanks in advance for an helpful tips

AFAIK you can't downgrade Kindle firmware, unless Amazon gives you a special downgrade version (maybe only once on the DXG?).

I don't know what you might have otherwise done wrong.

. . . . .

Double posting.
It is strongly frowned on at this form (and against the site guidelines section 3, see Guidelines link at bottom of every page).

If you really feel that you must double post, wait at least more than 21 minutes.
