[solved] Kobo Glo not detected

Hello,

First of all, as it is my first post, I'd like to give a round of thanks. I've been following this forum for several years, and it's here that I found a solution to every problem I've ever encountered managing Calibre, my Glo, and my public library's 30 readers (Glos and PRS-T2s), as well as discovering useful plugins and firmware links.

I recently reinstalled my computer after changing a few parts, and proceeded to install Calibre and load my library. First of all, my library doesn't work properly. It seems to load the opf file as the actual ebook and nothing works. Anyway, I haven't really looked into that so I won't bother you with it yet.

The issue that upsets me the most is that my Kobo Glo isn't detected at all by Calibre. It is detected, correctly identified and installed by the system (there's a KoboeReader drive all right, and I can browse it with the explorer), but nothing appears in Calibre at all. I've tried several cables and USB ports, to no avail. I've tried the option to connect a specific folder, and Calibre sees it but it doesn't make any sense of it, the content (my library) doesn't appear in a usable way.

I connected the Kobo to my wifi yesterday and got the 3.12.1 OTA update before I try to connect it to my computer. Maybe is it related ?

Here's the device log :

I apologize in advance if this should have been posted in the Kobo forum, and if this issue has been resolved a hundred times, I haven't managed to find relevant posts...

Thanks !
