Kindle 1.17 for PC Download: A Step-by-Step Guide

Are you experiencing issues connecting the Kindle app to the internet on your Debian Buster system using version 3 of the Kindle For PC installer? You're not alone! Many users have reported similar problems, including Bernd_Schmitt who mentioned that they were unable to connect the app to the internet.

To resolve this issue, I recommend downloading and installing Kindle For PC version 1.17, which is the last version before Amazon changed the AZW format, making it incompatible with Calibre. This version kept all books in a single MASS folder, unlike later versions that split each book into its own folder.
