Hmmm.... did you check in the Kobo ereader forum? As for the thread in Calibre/Devices, I seem to remember that more than one person posted about having issues.

As for other sources, the Windows Insider feedback hub had quite a few posts about issues with Kobo ereaders the last 8 or so preview builds prior to the Anniversary version general release. Though they never did receive the number of upvotes a demand for a Pokemon Go app did.

Given that I found this behaviour on 3 VMs and 4 physical computers (2 Intel chipset, 2 AMD chipset) with a mix of Windows 10 x64 and X86 installs of the later preview builds and the Anniversary release build, I'm quite confident that the issue is going to cause quite a few people problems.
