You need to update your DeDRM plugin. Only the latest version (6.6.0] can handle KFX format.

You need to update the DeDRM plugin to 6.6.0 for KFX books.

@j-howell @ElleKayEm thanks a lot for your reply and help! It was actually that! I've downloaded the updated plug-in version and it works now! I've found also very useful this post: [https://www.geoffstratton.com/remove-drm-amazon-kindle-books]
