My suggestion - don't upgrade to v3.17, or download the new setup file, unless needs must between now and the time that a few people (who know how) look behind the scenes.
So far I've found that you can uninstall 3.17 and go back to 3.15. Otherwise, 3.17 has the annoying habit of doing endless syncs on my H2O -- goes through the usual steps up to checking for an upgrade and the popup closes but the sync spinner still spins. Left it for 30 minutes and still spinning. Downloading a kepub with 3.15 and 3.17 gives the same file (same filesize and checksums) so the changes seem to be in the desktop software and not in the kepubs.
