    If you don’t see a system folder when your Kindle is plugged in, you may have to tell your computer to show hidden system files. If you’re using Windows, you may also have to show protected operating system files. To do that, see these instructions for Windows and these instructions for Mac.

    Once you’re in the system folder, find the thumbnails folder and drag and drop the thumbnail into there.

    Make sure to copy the thumbnail after copying the azw3 ebook file. Due to a bug in the Kindle software, your Kindle will use a default cover for your ebook if you don’t copy the thumbnail file over. Complain to Amazon.
