I have redownloaded Kobo Desktop twice and attempted it on an older XP machine to the same result; the only way to access the device's disk is in the virgin 'plug the device in' state achieved post-factory reset.
Help?

I take it you have already tried to do a factory reset either from the menu or hardware?
Tried a different USB cable?
When you use a USB connection to your computer after a factory reset, do you see the Kobo ereader mounted as a drive before you run the Kobo Desktop App?
If your device is set up over a wireless connection, you should be in the same state as the Kobo Desktop application would achieve (user setup, syncing books from the Kobo site, etc.). You would still need to connect to your computer to use ADE to setup Adobe's DRM for borrowing library books and so on but the Kobo application is not really needed.
