Thanks for the advice

Would you please take the trouble to explain how to do this

I'm very new to eReaders, the Kobo Touch is my first and only one so far !
First of all, you will need to sync with server to save your reading life. Also, back up all books you have transferred to device if you have done so. Books purchased from Kobo store are automatically synchronized.

Note that this process will clear up your reading statistics.

You will need to set up the device again with your computer, and you will need your Kobo account.

After all is clear and backups has been made, do following:

1. Start up your Kobo Touch
2. In main menu, touch "Home" and then "Settings"
3. Touch "Device Information"
4. Touch "Factory reset" NOTE! THIS WILL CLEAR THE DEVICE
5. Device asks confirmation and does its magic for few minutes

After the process, you can start the device, and it is just like brand new. It will ask you to connect to computer and run through setup. During the process, device will automatically upgrade to latest firmware again.
