Run .bat, I get "the system cannot find the specified path"

any ideas ?.
You don't need to have your Glo plugged in to generate the patched file.

After you unzipped the patch file, you copied the kobo-update-3.11.0.zip into the 3.11.0_source directory? Note that the firmware file is placed in the folder without unpacking it. Alternately, you can unpack the 3 files that are needed from the firmware update file and place them in that directory manually.

You can edit the patch file with any editor. It uses Windows style CRLF EOLs.

You might want to edit the batch file and set debug log to true. You can then post the log file in the Instructions for patching firmware 3.11.0 forum. While not exactly the most verbose, it does help to show where the batch file is looking for it's bits and pieces.

Code:
project name = 3.11.0 
the7zipexe=C:\Users\User\Desktop\Kobo Patcher\patch_kobo_311\tools\7za920\7za.exe 
thepatchexe=C:\Users\User\Desktop\Kobo Patcher\patch_kobo_311\tools\pa32lsb.exe 
currentpath=C:\Users\User\Desktop\Kobo Patcher\patch_kobo_311 
sourcepath=C:\Users\User\Desktop\Kobo Patcher\patch_kobo_311\3.11.0_source  
targetpath=C:\Users\User\Desktop\Kobo Patcher\patch_kobo_311\3.11.0_target  
thekobopath=C:\Users\User\Desktop\Kobo Patcher\patch_kobo_311\3.11.0_target\usr\local\Kobo
