Don't know,but it is not an official feature so you put it there at own risk,same when battery went dead or any other cases where you need the power button.. so I just put the feature on in the config file when needed, make a screenshot,and then put it out again, I never let it on for the same reasons to avoid power switch problems, you can enable and disable it.
Goto the .kobo directory and from there again to kobo, there you will find the Kobo eReader.conf file.
I edit it with notepad ++

Then I go to this path (possible you have to insert it.)
[FeatureSettings]
FullBookPageNumbers=false
OnlineWikipedia=false
Screenshots=false

When you change Screenshots=false into Screenshots=true you can make the screenshots with the power button, after that I change it back to Screenshots=false and leave it that way.
So in an emergency i will never face the problem of a non working power button.

More "tweaks" you can find in https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=218376 but always use them at own risk.
