A pre-release of the DeDRM plugin only (v7.0.3) is now available.  This release REQUIRES calibre 5.x which utilizes Python 3 for plugins. Since this is the DeDRM plugin only, DO NOT unzip the downloaded file.  Load the entire zipped file as is into calibre 5.x. 

If you use Calibre and Apprentice Alf's De-DRM plugin to manage your ebook library, there's a compatibility issue with the newest version of Calibre (5.x) and the previous version of the plugin. I discovered this myself when I went to de-drm a purchase today and found my plugin completely gone! Luckily, a new version of the plugin came out yesterday which fixes the main problem.

Oh gosh, thanks for this. I haven't yet upgraded my Calibre to the newest version, but I depend on the de-DRM plugin!

Thank you!!! I just updated my Calibre this week and I would cry if De-DRM didn't work.

Thanks for the heads up! I went crazy trying to fix this plugin in Calibre before I found out it wasn't compatible with the newer Calibre versions. I've been using a 4 version just to keep the DRM remover working.

That's great news, thank you for the heads up. I've been waiting for the new version of the plugin.
