For non-technical users, is a one click way to get rid of the amazon stuff & install stock Android?

I am trying to help a friend on another continent who has a kindle fire 7 running OS v 5.6.8 (auto-updated just a few days ago, which looks like it might be a problem).

Solutions seem to involve downloading scripts to a PC, then using Android Studio to side-load the scripts to the kindle, then running them, which would beyond my friend, even with assistance - even if they had a PC, which they do not (nor access to one), just the kindle fire.

Does anyone know of a one-click solution, or something close to it, involving only the kindle fire (7 OS 5.6.8)?

    freeze app from settings. don't know kindle os, so universal way is via package manager. unfortunately that is from cmd line. but you may find some app doing this – alecxs Jan 09 '21 at 16:08
  • I suppose that I could accept a command line solution, as my friend could copy/paste, as long as it i snot too complicated. Free free to post an answer, if it is simple, although it seems like there maybe complications with the newer OS. However, we can only try. – Mawg says reinstate Monica Jan 09 '21 at 16:15
