--- Comment #6 from Rosanne DiMesio <dimesio at earthlink.net> ---
Removing winetricks from the summary, as it has nothing to do with the problem
(I didn't install with it).  

DRM does seem to be related to the problem, and it looks like Amazon has
changed their DRM with the new version. I deleted all my DRM books locally, and
Kindle for PC 1.14.x started up without any problem. I then re-downloaded those
books, and it still starts up (so far, anyway). I can open those books in
1.14.x, but I can't open them in 1.12.x, though they show up in the library.
1.12.x now pops up a message saying "The book could not be opened. Please
remove the book from your device and redownload it."
