Question about getting your books from Kindle for PC and "saving" them in another folder to wait for a time to remove DRM eventually

Hey guys, I have a simple question (for me) to ask regarding keeping your DRM books while waiting for a newer working method to remove the DRM.

I already tried my best to scower the sub to find working ways to remove the DRM and they're either no longer working or I'm just too dumb to understand how they work and give up...

So, my question is: can I just extract the azw files from My Kindle Content folder, store them somehwere else and remove the DRM once a reliable working method surfaces? At this point, there's nothing else I'm able to do it seems.

My plan is the following:

1. Exact the azw files from MKC folder
2. Move them to calibre, where they show up as a KFX-zip
3. Wait for a calibre DRM method to work and then get my books one day... or wait for someone to throw them into the sea and see if I can find them... Which would suck because I already bought them...

If my "plan" doesn't work, what's the best method to at least get the files and deDRM them later when a method works? I googled and it seems that the azw file is the actual book that gets converted into a KFX-zip file in calibre when the DRM plugin failed to remove the DRM. So when I press O and it opens the containing folder, it shows me this:

Translation: Archivo = file | this is the azw file I added from MKC folder to calibre which I then opened from calibre and it shows up as a KFX-zip file

And if I add that same file (KFX-zip) back to calibre it'll show up like this, with the book cover, title, and author:

Book added back to calibre from calibre's containing folder

But when I copy the azw book files from MKC folder to another folder in my Documents, and add them to calibre, they show up like this:

folder where I added the azw files from MKC folder

Then it shows on calibre like this:

example of azw file added to calibre from the #DRM Books folder

And like this:

So I'm a bit lost on the difference between the two and what to do to at least make sure I have my purchased books saved into either calibre or a folder outside My Kindle Content folder once kindle for pc stops being supported...

I also apologies if I'm getting confused and overcomplicating things. My end goal is to just have the book files saved in my pc and deDRM them eventually when a working method come to live.

Thank you!
