Overall, there is no issue with connecting a Kobo device to a Windows 10 machine. But, there are some specific machines that have problems. It can be drivers, or hardware, or even a cable/port/device combination. Changing the cable or port will help. Using an external USB hub can help.

I do find my Glo HD to be the fussiest device. It doesn't like some of the cables I have. And I have a USB wedge gadget that allows me to leave a device physically connected and press a button to trigger the connect/disconnect. The Glo HD doesn't work with this, but all the other devices do. It will connect, but when there is some load over the connection, it disconnects. And that leaves the USB port in a state that can need a reboot to reset it.
