I then have to repeat the entire process above. I'd be stuck without this sort of community support.Įdit: Every time I open kindle 1.17 it auto updates to 1.30 even with the auto update box checked. Thanks to all those who have posted on this issue. It will be interesting to see if this happens with my next purchase. I'm not sure how the program was able to update itself despite the auto update box remaining unchecked. I reinstalled 1.17 and was able to successfully login but it took several attempts for some reason.I had used "uninstaller" software but it clearly missed the key registry entry. After reading this post, I deleted the HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Amazon\Kindle key, leaving the HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Amazon\Amazon Music key intact.I uninstalled 1.30 and reinstalled 1.17 only to be caught in the continual login loop described above.
Yesterday I purchased a 3rd book only to discover that the kindle app auto updated itself to 1.30 upon opening despite the auto update box still being unchecked.Over the course of a couple of weeks, I purchased 2 books that were successfully de-DRM'ed.I installed the kindle app 1.17 on a new PC in November 2021, making sure the auto update was unchecked.This worked for me so I hope it can help others )
Install again the version 1.17 of the Kindle app, make sure in the settings that automatic update is unchecked (or uncheck it again). In the folder structure on the left, go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/Amazon as u/PurposeSeeker2020 wisely said, right click on this folder and click Delete. Open the registry editor: tap the Windows key again and type "regedit", press Enter, a window should open. Uninstall the Kindle software from your PC (the usual way, with Windows software manager, should do) Create a restauration point in windows (tap the Windows Key and type "restauration" you should find the corresponding tool)
First, I'd suggest you create a restauration point to save your system state before editing the registry (this is a very sensitive part of the Windows system and one simple mistake could corrupt your OS).
