Recent as in the last couple of days. Check the Firmware Download thread in the Kobo Developer's Forum -- https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=185660 for the links to sideload the firmware if it has not automatically updated.

I'd meant that I don't have access to the files I'd copied to the Kobo; I have the one on the Kobo, which I may have edited since it got there. I bounce between a desktop and two laptops, and am used to using my ereader as portable ebook storage in addition to holding files I want to read.
When I was doing some stuff like that (multiple laptops and computers), versioning was my lifesaver since I could keep track of which were the newer files and, at time, which were the last known good files.
