Back to where I started!

I believe the latest version (including the local lang. options) is on the main website: http://download.kobobooks.com/deskto.../kobosetup.exe

Also after the update did you do this again?

"2. The 'connect your ereader' screen always popping up also needs to be addressed so that you can test that #1 is fixed. To do this, after you install the attached build:
1. Right click on the desktop application icon and go to 'Properties'
2. In the 'Target' field you will see something like: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Kobo\Kobo.exe" --affiliate Kobo --enable-fte
3. DELETE the part that says "--enable-fte"
4. Click Apply and close the window
5. Start the Kobo app"


If your Kobo icon/shortcut has the "--enable-fte" it seems to want to do a first time setup (just tried adding that to my shortcut). You probably have to delete this on your icon the first time.

I will admit once I had tried this switch I didn't seem to have any choice but to reconnect my Kobo eReader which was indeed annoying.

Sameer perhaps a question in the First Setup screens saying "do you have a Kobo eInk Reader" or such.. and based on that selection forcing the connection of it or not might be a better course.
