Before the clean install everything worked fine so there are no problems with USB ports or cables.
When I plug in the e-reader, the USB-sound is played but nothing else happens. Under PC Management I can see a new drive (e-reader) but it is not initiated and I wouldn't touch it unless I have to. There is no letter assigned to it and it basically looks like an empty drive without partition.
My conclusion is: as the previous Win 10 installation was an upgrade from Windows 8, there must be something (drivers?) Win 8 used to recognize an e-reader as such. After the upgrade it probably stayed in the system and e-readers worked fine. However, a clean install of Win 10 doesn't have this something.
So - what is that SOMETHING and how can I put it back?
(Note: I tried every possible solution I could find - change the cable, different USB ports, re-install of USB drivers, etc.)

1) No need to install anti-virus on Windows 10.
# it causes a lot of problems on the whole Avast etc.
(In addition to anti-virus for nothing. Better install than an Anti-Spyware)
2) You should install first driver for your
"chipset".

Not with Windows 10, but look for the drivers on the official
factory page of your motherboard.
3) Connect to a USB 2.0 not on the 3.0.
