The error message is:
Error: Cannot decode library or rented ebooks.
The tools will not work with "time-limited"
Kindle ebooks. If you are simply renting an ebook, then the tools will not allow you to remove the DRM. If you want to do that, you need to actually fully purchase the ebook first and then the tools will work. This is explained in the Release Notes for tools_v4.7.zip which can be found on the ApprenticeAlf site.

In concordance with our site policy of not endorsing or supporting piracy, the tools cannot remove DRM from "rented" or "time limited" Kindle ebooks. Time limiting media via DRM is one of the only legitimate reasons we can see for actually using DRM. So If you want to remove the DRM from a Kindle ebook, please buy your own copy first. Renting it is not sufficient as you do not actually own the rented ebook.
