I'd suggest hitting the Adobe site and downloading ADE 2.0.1. The direct link for the ADE 2.0.1 download for Windows is
http://download.adobe.com/pub/adobe/..._Installer.exe.
If you want to try an older version, you can also get ADE 1.7.2 from
http://helpx.adobe.com/digital-editi...aleditions.exe. I keep this version around for testing epubs since it has many of the same bugs as the version of the Reader Mobile software used by Kobo.
With 2.0.1, when I have my ereader connected, it shows KOBOeReader as a connected device. Clicking on the drop down by the gear wheel at the end of the Device line, I can authorize, display authorization information or erase device authorization.
Once you have your Kobo authorized, I'd recommend copying the authorization file from the .adobe-digital-editions directory. Under Windows, it's a hidden file called activation.xml. Copying it back after a factory reset saves you from having to reauthorize your ereader and using up one of the limited number of authorizations allowed. Of course, you might prefer calling Adobe and begging for a few more authorizations.
