Go to Adobe.com and register for a username and password and you can register ADE with that username and password.
Install Calibre 64-bit (if you have a 64-bit Windows) and then go tot he link ps67 posted and get the DeDRM plugin and install it. Configure it and get the key from ADE.
Go to Kobo.com and download all of the eBook you have from Kobo as ePub. The eBooks you download will be found in C:\Users\XXXX\Documents\My Digital Editions. The XXXX is the name of your account in Windows 10.
Then you can drag/drop the ePub into Calibre and if everything is correct, you will have all of your ePub in Calibre with no DRM.

My way which requires installing the Kobo Desktop Edition allows download your books in bulk compared to your one at a time manual process. Then run the Obok plugin in calibre (it came in the same .zip file that installed the Adept DeDRM plugin), select all the files and add them to calibre. You may want to sit there and download 1200 odd books at one go but I have better uses for my time like maybe reading a book or two.
BTW, for now ADE 4.5.11 works with Kobo without using Adobe's hardened DRM. Ditto for the public libraries I use.
