My new kindle ebook purchases-kindle desktop app?

I just noticed that my latest kindle ebook purchases are not showing up in my kindle desktop app. Does anyone know the reason for this? I have been purchasing kindle ebooks for years and this is the first time this has happened.

What version? It may be related to Amazon discontinuing the old Kindle Desktop app at the end of the month.

How do I go about updating the app...or getting a newer app that will work on my desktop? It has been so long since I have downloaded any newer kindle desktop app. Do they still offer the Kindle desktop app?

If you're using it for DRM removal, don't update. Read this post about installing a version that works with DRM removal, but note that it will only work until the end of June. Then it will be replaced with a Windows store app.

If you're using it for reading, just install the latest version:

It looks like I will have to wait for the newer app when it comes out. I tried some of the ideas on the web site you recommended but couldn't get anything to work. SO SAD. Looks like the only option that I have right now is to purchase Kobo books...I do have a couple of Kobo readers...really like my Libra 2 but would like it more in color. Not spending more $$ for another color reader.

Most of us either are already, or will be shortly, in the same situation. Amazon is cutting us all off piecemeal.

If you are still on Windows 10, the new app will not help as it will reportedly only run on Windows 11. You can use any web browser to read, without missing much vs. Kindle for PC.

I had VM Windows 11 setup, but could not update the Kindle app to a later version still compatible with NoDRM. And in the attempts to update messed up with NoDRM prerequisites after reverting to previous version. Haven't had time or interest to fix it as it's unlikely to work for much longer.

Android & iOS are better for Kindle ebooks, if you have to buy them or have a KU sub.
