I found it by googling for Kindle with Accessible Plug-in; it's on the Amazon 
help page.

A bit more info.

Using the NVDA screenreader, you can display books as a list in the Kindle
for PC app. They will be in a table, and you will need to tab around a bit
to find them. When you highlight a book, press alt for the file menu. That's
where the download option is. Note that you also have to choose the PC app
as your Send to source in the Kindle store.

Good luck.

Hello Prateek

I'm sorry if I can't be very specific with this. I was able to do it, but it
took a lot of fiddling. But maybe I can recount enough that it will be
helpful.

The Kindle for PC program is very difficult as you know. Jaws is useless
with it. I was able to do more with it using NVDA, so switch to that
screenreader. I did a lot of exploring of the menus with NVDA and was able
to find both a download and open book choice on the menus. Although I
couldn't read any of the book in the Kindle app, perhaps activating those
choices was helpful. Even after downloading, I have no idea where the book
went. It wasn't listed in the My Kindle Content folder.

I then went into the conversion program you are also using. I couldn't
locate the folder or file anywhere, but ended up choosing to convert
everything in the default My Kindle Content folder anyway. When I looked in
the . eBooks folder where conversion results go, my book was there along
with the free ones for Treasure Island, etc.

Using NVDA, it appears that you can also remove the Kindle version from your
library. I didn't try that.

Hope this at least gets you started.

Jean

Hello gang.
How do I get a purchased kindle book to actually download on my computer's
hard drive?? ,
Using Win8.1, Latest JFW17. I installed and logged on to Amazon's 'Kindle
for PC' program on my Win8.1 windows computer. I'm successfully logged on to
my amazon account each time I open the "kindle for PC' program. I bought a
kindle book using my web browser at amazon.com and clicked the 'deliver to
kindle for PC' button. ON my computer opening the 'kindle for PC' program, I
can see the purchased book listed there.  I just can't find it on my PC's
hard drive which suggests that the 'kindle for PC' program on my computer is
accessing the book and its contents from the cloud and not my PC's hard
drive.  I can open and read the book within the 'kindle for PC' program. I
however need it on my PC's hard drive so I can use AN ACCESSIBLE LEGAL
SOFTWARE CALED the CALLED 'CODEX' TO CONVERT THE KNIDLE FORMAT TO ANOTHER TO
ALLOW me to read it on my BookSense Xt.I can also see that installing the
'kindle for PC' and logging on to my amazon account through this program on
my computer put the kindle book 'Treasure Island' for free on my PC's hard
drive and I'm able to locate the files for this kindle book on the hard
drive. I can also see Treasure Island right below the book I purchased in
the list in the kindle for PC program. Just can't find the purchased book
anywhere on the hard drive despite doing a search.
