The Amazon website provides a way of importing EPUB and PDF files from 
your PC into Kindle, but I've never investigated whether it's possible 
to do it the other way round. However a quick search on the web turned 
up this:

https://www.epubor.com/convert-kindle-ebooks-to-epub.html

However it requires downloading a conversion utility and it doesn't make 
clear whether it will run on 32-bit Windows or only on 64-bit.
