* With Kindle for PC/Mac 1.19 and later, Amazon included support for their new KFX format. While the tools now include a first attempt at supporting drm removal for KFX format, we recommend using Kindle for PC/Mac 1.17 or earlier which prevents downloads of the new format, as conversions from the olde KF8 format are likely to be more successful.

** Some later Kindles support Amazon's new KFX format which uses a new DRM scheme that these tools cannot remove. To avoid this problem, instead of using files downloaded directly to your Kindle, download from Amazon's web site 'for transfer via USB'. This will give you an older format file that the tools can decrypt. See also the FAQ entry about this.

** Some later Kindles support Amazon's new KFX format. And some books download in a split azw3/azw6 format. For best results, instead of using files downloaded directly to your Kindle, download from Amazon's web site 'for transfer via USB'. This will give you an single file to import.

*** With Adobe Digital Editions 3.0 and later, Adobe have introduced a new, optional, DRM scheme. To avoid this new scheme, you should use Adobe Digital Editions 2.0.1. Some books are required to use the new DRM scheme and so will not download with ADE 2.0.1. If you still want such a book, you will need to use ADE 3.0 or later to download it, but you should remember that no tools to remove Adobe's new DRM scheme exist as of June 2017.
