    Kindle PC app not Downloading Books


    I have hundreds of Kindle books in my Family Library. They are all accessible through my Amazon and Android and Apple devices. However, over the past few weeks, I have discovered that I cannot download any Kindle books on any of my Windows 10 PCs. The Kindle Cloud Reader is working. But I need the features of the old Kindle PC application.


    The books appear to download after a fresh PC Restart. That is, they are counted in the list of Downloaded books. However, the books reported as downloaded cannot be opened. It took an hour with Amazon support to get to this point. But I cannot access and Kindle books from my Windows 10 PCs. Two of them.


    Anybody else? Any suggestions?

    :)

  2. App for Kindle books

    I have to constantly jump 3 pages forward and then back because it skips a partial page quite often. And I do mean often.

    The bad / worst part is Amazon is removing support from the Kindle app for Windows.

    I presume it will work until some update fixes it, maybe. Or they could turn it off and make it so it doesn't work at all.

    I suspect they want to force us to buy Kindles but that isn't happening. I bought my SO the Oasis and it is fine and she likes it but I see no reason to have a smart phone where reading apps work just fine AND a Kindle e reader. I often have to spend a lot
    of time waiting at doctors offices etc. and I use my phone to read. As well as reading from the phone during the day and in bed.

    I need a new e reader app for the Windows 10 phone but I don't think any of them will read Kindle e-books. I get my e-books from the Kindle Unlimited and I will have to drop that ( which is cheap books ) if I can't use the Kindle app anymore.

    I wish there was another app that would read e-books I download from Amazon. I don't even know where it puts the books I download to the phone. I think they have hidden directories or something.
