Hi,

Right now Epubor doesn't support Kindle for PC 1.39 yet Amazon is requiring it to download books.

What are your update plans to keep up with Amazon's new versions?

Thank you

Thank you for your message. We aware of this issue and we are sincerely sorry for this. It seems the amazon kindle has changed something in the new published kindle books. It requires the latest kindle app to download it.

Now we are working on this issue. Once there is a solution, we will let you know. The older kindle books still can be cracked with Epubor Software.

There is still another way to remove drm from this kind of kindle books if you have any kindle eink device registered with your amazon account. Please download the kindle books via "Download and transfer via usb" and then remove kindle drm with Epubor Ultimate. Here is the detailed guide: https://www.epubor.com/how-to-remove-drm-from-kindle-kfx-ebooks.html#meth4
Any more problem, please feel free to contact us.

I have the same problem. Every eBook just issued requires PC 1.39 to be downloaded. Both version of Epubor cannot remove DRM. I have contacted support 2 or 3 times, and each time I am told to download the Kindle 1.17 which cannot download the new eBooks.

I have this problem as well. No matter which older version of Kindle for PC you install, downloading Amazon books only works with version 1.39 anymore.

Ran into the same problem and don't see anything on Epudor's website of them acknowledging the problem and taking it for action. Their Tech Support hasn't been helpful at all on this matter.  Epudor currently requires auto-down grade to 1.32 version to be able to crack the DRM code but that is no longer is a viable solution with Kindle's latest updated version 1.39 requirement to even be able to download their books.  As such, we're all held waiting for what is Epubor's work around for this.

And we have to admit that the new kindle kfx format using very complicated algorithm. There is no way to crack them currently on the market.

Not sure if or when Epubor will be able to break Kindle's latest encryption codes within the newest Kindle's (required to use) version(s).  I had to use Epubor's work around of downloading the book (from my Amazon account, Digital content management) via the download by USB method to a Kindle EINK (e-reader) device (registered to my Amazon account).  The downside of this was that I had to buy this EINK device as I didn't own one already.  Once that was done then just need to go into your PC's downloads and drag that book's AZW3 file and drop it into Epubor which will bypass Kindle's unbreakable DRM code and allow you to then convert it within Epubor without getting the Kindle KFX error.
