For what I need it for I am not willing to waste $37. Last thing to note is that this is a rented book. These are the whole steps we should take to install a plugin to Calibre. I have my own discord with Nitro and multiple Google drives if anyone would like to examine the book that is giving me difficulty I am ready and willing to share/upload the files. For the DeDRM plugin, it’s installed under the File type plugins. I have even tried numerous online conversion/stripping sites and software including Eupabor and Epubsoft and somewhere along the line I was prompted to enter the s/n for my device which did not work but I think that was before I merged the accounts. Hope this cuts down on the number of posts made about this.Yes, I have entered my S/N and additionally I resurrected my device and since it was purchased on a secondary old Amazon account I have gone ahead and contacted Amazon and they helped me out with "merging" my two accounts using the "Amazon Prime for Households" so even though the book I am struggling with was purchased on the new/current account which was not used to purchase the Paperwhite I am hoping that now that the two accounts are merged the S/N will work. Navigate to your Calibre Portable's library and add the eBook file. OPTION TWO (Best for larger libraries with multiple plugins):ī) Exit Calibre Portable. Includes a Formulas action to do calculations on multiple rows. Run chains automatically in response to events. Choose from calibre actions, your own custom actions, or from plugin builtins. (Note that since the portable version is 32-bit, it may have difficulty with very large libraries.)Ĭ) Close Calibre Portable. Automate calibre by chaining actions together and running them through a menu or a keybaord shortcut. Only do this on 4.23 as otherwise the databases aren't quite compatible with 5.x. OPTION ONE (Best for small libraries with few plugins):Ī) Open your current library in Calibre Portable.

Copy your settings ( C:\Users\\AppData\Roaming\calibre\plugins\dedrm.json) over to \Calibre Settings\plugins\ so that the keys are available. Grab an older version of Calibre Portable.ģ. Here's a method that lets you run 5.x and 4.23 side-by-side on Windows:ġ.

If you come across a book for which it doesn't work, drop back to 4.23 and 6.8.x. Calibre 5.x requires DeDRM 7.1.0 or laterĭeDRM 7.1.0 mostly works OK.
