I have to take back the comment about how long it takes for the error after pressing reload. I cleaned up the Aura HD a bit. Then I connected and ran the the annotations exporter. This time it was about ten seconds before the error was displayed. But, if I hit reload again, it was displayed immediately. The same happen with the Glo HD.

The application also doesn't display its window if these devices are connected when I start it. I can see it in the task list, then it disappears with no error or anything displayed.

What are you actually looking at in the .kobo directory? If I give you that, I'm giving you over 600MB of stuff. Of course, there isn't any point in looking at most of that. Other than the database, only the version file makes sense. The device.salt.conf might makes sense if you have worked out how to use that to decrypt something. But, you wouldn't need that until you actually tried to read a DRM protected kepub. The affiliate.conf also doesn't have anything of interest. The Kobo eReader.conf, might makes sense, but there isn't anything in it related to the annotations. Except maybe the locale settings.
