I can only answer as a Windows user. Kobo purchases downloaded to Kobo Desktop will probably be in directory
C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Kobo\Kobo Desktop Edition\kepub\

They will have incomprehensible names with no file extension
e.g. aa9a9954-66b3-40ab-bfc2-4391c5fee6ba

They will be in kepub format rather than standard epub and will probably (but not always) have DRM which can be removed with the appropriate calibre Obok plugin from Apprentice Alf. Not allowed to say much more than that about DRM in these forums.

If you're more familiar with Alf's other de-DRM plugin then I believe you can download your book in standard epub format by logging into your account at Kobo.com and using the download option.
