2. Desktop PC
3. No
I am using a desktop computer with Windows 10 running. When I go to the website through the link on your site, the only device available was my phone, not my desktop PC. I tried to back out of everything in order to choose mobi, but that choice was never available. Anything else file-wise and downloading to a different file is beyond my expertise. I am just trying to get out of the Review team now and then delete my account.

Once chosen, the format can't be changed.

This is very disturbing and confusing. I have never been able to download a book from this site. Please take me off the review team for this book and delete my account.

You need to report it or quit the book via your Update tab, NOT here. After doing that, you will be able to quit.
