I'm confused about your confusion. You only unzip the outer-most archive. Then the zip file you load into calibre is the one inside the DeDRM_calibre_plugin folder.
Here is what the Read Me file in that folder says about installation:
From the Preferences menu, do NOT select "Get plugins to enhance calibre" as this is reserved for 'official' calibre plugins. Instead select "Change calibre behavior" to go to Calibre's Preferences page. Under "Advanced" click on the Plugins button. Use the "Load plugin from file" button to select the plugin's zip file (DeDRM_plugin.zip) and click the "Add" button. Click "Yes" in the the "Are you sure?" dialog. Click OK in the "Success" dialog.
Do you have a suggestion for how it could be more clear?

Thank you for your reply.
It must been awhile since I came across ZIP archives zipped within another ZIP archive. Withing "DRM-tools_v6.2.1.zip" and and only related to Calibre, there are in 2 different zipped folders 2 more zip-archives: "DeDRM_plugin.zip" (in the folder "Obok_calibre_plugin") and "DeDRM_plugin.zip" in the folder "DeDRM_calibre_plugin". That is to me already a bit confusing at this time of the night.
The problem with installing the plug-in also might indeed have come because I initially only un-zipped the "DeDRM_calibre_plugin"-folder from the main archive ("DRM-tools_v6.2.1.zip"). Shortcuts don't always work very well. Not at night.
Lets see how far I get in clarifying (IMO) the installation text....
Installation
Before starting Calibre un-zip "DeDRM_plugin.zip" to your hard drive. This will create a number of sub-folders. Some of these folders contain other ZIP-files. There is NO need to unzip these.
Now open Calibre.
Calibre's plug-ins have the extension .ZIP. This can be bit confusing but don't worry: the rest of the installation instructions will talk you through the actual installation process in Calibre.
From the Preferences menu, do NOT select "Get plugins to enhance calibre" as this is reserved for 'official' calibre plugins. Instead select "Change calibre behavior" to go to Calibre's Preferences page. Under "Advanced" click on the Plugins button. Use the "Load plug-in from file" button to select the plugin's zip file (DeDRM_plugin.zip) and click the "Add" button. Click "Yes" in the the "Are you sure?" dialog. Click OK in the "Success" dialog.
Hope this is any useful. I zip it now.
Thank you for all your efforts.

You unzip one thing and one thing only and that is tools_v6.2.1.zip. Yeah, it can be a bit overwhelming to open that up and see all these different folders with different tools. But you just look at the "Read Me First" text to see which tool you need. Then look at the "Read Me" in that tool's folder.
Glad you did get it figured out though!
