The first is by pulling it directly off of the device in Calibre. Now there’s two ways to remove DRM using the plugins. Note that this serial number is only necessary if you are going to pull DRM protected books directly off of your Kindle device. After you’ve entered it, click OK and Apply to save changes. If you don’t know it, you can gather your 16 digit serial number from Amazon’s website under the Manage My Devices area. Within the plugin settings you can add the Kindle’s serial number. If you’re running a Kindle device ( except Fire) the Kindle and Mobipocket DeDRM plugin can be configured further to pull books directly from the device. Open the first zip file on the list, and then repeat the process again for all five of the plugin zip files.Īfter you’ve added all of the plugins they’ll be listed in the “File type” plugins list of Calibre. Now browse to the Calibre_Plugins folder extracted from Alfy’s pack. This can be done by clicking the right arrows and then selecting the gear icon that says Preferences.

Unzip the tools_v#.#.zip folder that was downloaded from Alf’s, and then put the Calibre_Plugins folder somewhere you’ll be able to easily find it. Once you have those two programs installed, you need to configure Alf’s DRM tools for Calibre. Then setup and download your books onto Kindle for PC. The first thing you need to do is download and install Calibre and Kindle for PC. This will however work on E-inks and some other non-Kindle tablets. Note: This does not work for pulling protected books directly from a Kindle Fire Android tablet.
