I had done this - it didn't help.

I clicked Device -> Eject in Calibre - that's the same option. But before I miss-clicked on some option with buffer (Calibre -> Device -> something about buffer - I don't see it in Calibre docs). After that I clicked "Eject" in Calibre and unplugged the Kindle.

Anyway, the PW doesn't have a home button anymore like my older Kindle Touch does...
Ofc I meant power button - there is only one, as you mentioned.
