I decided to try a factory re-set. I carried that out, then I installed Kobo DeskTop, which uploaded all of the books that I have bought from Kobo. I also up-loaded a few ePub books that I have down-loaded from other sources.

When I try to read the Kobo books, all goes well, save that after every few pages, it jumps back to an earlier page, and I must read on from there, sweeping if necessary to return to the point that I had reached.

When I try to read the other books, the KT freezes after a few pages. Now, touching or sweeping the screen will not work, the navigator-switch does not work, and I cannot put the KT to sleep. All that I can do is hold the off-slide to 'off' for a minute or so until the Kt restarts, always taking me back to a point in the text some pages behind the point that I had actually reached.

Ought I to give up hope and buy an e-reader of a different make ?
