That's what happened to me. thing is ...first time I downloaded the KFPC,
it took about 48 minutes, typical for my connection speed and a file of that
size. This time, it took less than 2 minutes. Also, the set up wizard
didn't show up. Oh, and I checked my manage my devices, and there are no
registrations for Kindle for PC. It's like I never had one. Not shown as
registered or deregistered, though I found my Kindle keyboard.

I can download the software, but I still can't open it. I'm wondering
if the problem lies in the C:\Users\My_Username\Application Data\Local
directory. There are a couple of Kindle folders in that directory which
may need deleting. I may try this. If it fails, I'll call Amazon
Kindle Support. I'll keep the list posted.
