Associating file suffixes with programs

[AlexBell]

I often convert ePub ebooks to .azw3 format using the calibre program. When I had Windows 7 clicking on ebooks with the .azw3 suffix made them open with the Kindle previewer. With Windows 10 clicking on .azw3 ebooks opens them in calibre. How do I get .azw3 ebooks to open with the Kindle Previewer?

Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Default Programs
Click the link that says "Associate a file type or protocol with a program"
Scroll as necessary to find your .azw3 file extension, select it and click the "Change Program" button

Thanks for your response.

After I clicked the 'Change Program' button I got a list of programs, and eventually got to a list of all programs on my computer. But I couldn't find any mention of Kindle. I know I have Kindle on my computer; I just opened and read a page or so of a mobi ebook (in the My Kindle Content folder of owner/documents). And in the same list as the azw3 extension there is the mobi extension, with Kindle Content showing as its program.

Is there a way of copying the Kindle Content from mobi to azw3? Or is there another way of associating azw3 with Kindle Content?

No solution? Is there any other place I can ask?

You may need to install the Kindle For PC software.

To associate your .azw3 file extensions you will need to perform the task as I indicated above and browse to
C:\Users\YourUserName\AppData\Local\Amazon\Kindle\application\Kindle.exe
Your appdata folder may be hidden so you'll need to change that setting to show hidden files and folders
