When I booted up Windows for the first time in quite a long time and opened the Kobo app I didn't get a prompt to update, it was an August 2010 release running on there. I went Kobobooks.com and downloaded the latest installer, ran that and plugged in my original Kobo and got the firmware update prompt.

When I finished the upgrade my Kobo stayed on the "Installing latest software on your reader" screen (or something like that), I unplugged it from my machine, hit the power button and it went into sleep mode. When I pressed the Power button again it started up without issues.

On opening a book I was reading before the update it went to the same chapter I was on but the font size was set to "Small" from "Smallest" and the page number was/is off. After setting the font size again I've had a bit of a jumpy page turning experience, it went forward a bit then looped back but now it does seem back to normal.

While the process was not flawless it appears to have worked well enough so far, I'll post again if I run into anything.
