Cannot open downloaded book.

I right click on the downloaded link in my downloads file - Digital editions - which is open - does not show as an option.

What please should I do next.

I am a neurologically disabled computer dope who has difficulty following lengthy sequences.

I have used Digital Editions before and have several books downloaded, including one that I also purchased as an epub version.

    My e-book is a .lcpl file, what type of file even is that? I have never seen it before, could this file-format be causing the problem? 


    I contacted the bookstore once again, explaining what type of file this was. They e-mailed me back today saying that they were not supposed to deliver any books with this type of format, so they have refunded my purchase and I am going to get my money back. So I guess after all the issue was not with Adobe Digital Editions.

    I am so sorry for wasting your time, but I am thankful for the help I got on here.

      Hi Rasbihari

      I know it has been awhile since you asked! I use archive.org a lot too.

      If you haven't figured out how to open your downloaded books from archive.org by now, what sort of file format are they?

      I have the exact same issue, I feel helpless. I have tried so many different options but the file is basically impossible to open.

      I think eventually I did get access but this long after I cannot recall any detail.

      I wish you well - maybe the seller can help.
