When I first got my Glowlight 3, I had no problem with it when plugging into computer. The computer saw it as an ereader and so did Calibre. I turned on the wifi today and received the update. I plugged it in. It shows up on the computer main screen. When it didn't show up in Calibre, I unplugged, restarted the device (I assumed maybe that new software needed a restart). Plugged back in and no difference. The computer recognizes it, but apparently not as the right type of device.

Went to Device Manager. It shows the device under Disk Drives as a Linux File-CD Gadget USB Device. I am using Windows 10.

Can someone tell me step-by-step how I can fix this? Thanks!
