    windows 10 does not recognize my Kobo ereader

    Same here. Windows 10 does not recognize my Kobo Aura One.

    But on my other PC with Windows 7 the Kobo Aura One is recognized properly.

    Some information on the Win 10 rig that causes the trouble:

    • Surface Book, 16GB
    • Win10 Pro, 64 bit, Version 1607
    • Kobo Aura One, Software version 4.2.8110
    • Kobo Desktop 4.2.6122

    Here's what I have tried so far:

    • Factory reset of the Kobo device
    • Tried various different USB cables in various ports
    • Installed the Kobo desktop app
    • Searched for the most recent updates/patch for the Kobo device and installed them
    • Searched for the most recent updates/patch/drivers for my Win10 rig and installed them
    • I have tried the steps suggested by Mario Tum (Dec 26)
    • Asked Kobo customer support for help (they asked me to try some default stuff like re-plugging in the USB cable, but no real help so far; they told me they have passed the issue to 'someone else' within Kobo - whatever that means)

    Nothing resolved the issue. Since my Win7 rig recognizes my Kobo Aura One without any problems, I guess the problem lies with Win10.

  3. Kobo reader and Windows anniversary update

    Since the Windows 10 Anniversary update, my Kobo Glo reader is no longer recognised by my laptop when connected via USB. It is also not recognised by the Kobo desktop app nor Adobe Digital Editions. Accordingly no new books can be added if purchased
    from a store apart from Kobo. Kobo say that Microsoft is preparing a "build" to rectify the problem. Does anyone know of this "build"? In the meantime does anyone have any suggestions as to how the Kobo reader can be recognised by the Windows anniversary build?
