The Kindle app can be aggressive about updating itself to the latest version. Normal method for preventing undesired kindle app updates.Ĭlick on Tools>Options>General > uncheck “ Automatically install updates when they are available without asking me.” What if the above method is not working anymore? This is really aggressive, right? It seems kindle is trying to automatically update kindle for pc to the latest version without users’ permission.

It will now not let me downgrade, and no matter which version of the app I download, when it is installed it is the current version 1.30. I have unchecked the ‘automatic update’ box, but this morning it still updated without my permission. I use the Kindle for PC app to download books I buy so I can back them up. Deal with Kindle Update to 1.30 Automatically

What if I’ve already installed the latest version of Kindle for PC/Mac, let’s say kindle for PC 1.30. As for ebook user, there are slight differences between kindle for PC 1.24 and the latest kindle version （kindle 1.28 or 1.30) that you can just ignore. Why? Because from kindle 1.25, kindle books are not able to be cracked because of the harden KFX2 DRM.

If you are still using kindle 1.24 to download kindle books, lucky for you.
