New Microsoft EPub books

Does Microsoft DRM protect the books they sell? If so, I want my money back. That's ridiculous. And Microsoft EPUB books can only be opened by EDGE? Again, I want my money back.

It's MY book. I bought it. I don't have this issue with any of the other EPUB books I own. Only the one I bought from the Microsoft store.

 

Opening EPUB file with Edge

Hi,

You can read .ePub files in Microsoft Edge so long as they are not protected. The latest Windows 10 build brings EPUB file format support to Edge, allowing users to read their favorite EPUB books directly in the browser. To resolve your concern,
we suggest that you associate the file type to Edge as well. To do this, please follow the steps below:

• Type Control Panel in the Search bar and press Enter.
• Type Default Programs in the Control Panel Search bar.
  
  
  
• Click the Default Programs and select Associate a file type or protocol with a program option.
  
  
  
• Double-click the .ePub file type.
  
• Once the pop-up window shows the option, click on More apps drop down then select Edge.

Let us know if the solution above works for you.

New Microsoft EPub books

Hello. I recently purchased an EPUB book through the new feature in EDGE. I would like to read this book in another reader and store the book with the rest of my EBOOKS on my OneDrive. I found the EPUB book on my harddrive but when I try to open it with
another reader it is illegible. I don't get an error, I just see a bunch of control characters.

Why can I not read the book I purchased on any reader I choose?
