Question "Edit Book" no longer offers format choice
The edit book dialog has always functioned normally, offering a choice of either epub or azw3 that I maintain for each book in the library. Until today. After I updated a plugin (Kobo Touch Extended), selecting "Edit Book" now results in the automatic opening of the editor containing the epub, with no dialog box to select a format. The only way I can select/edit any other format now is to open the containing folder, right click on the book and "open with" calibre's editor. (currently on v4.17)

I don't know if the plugin update had anything to do with this sudden problem, or if it just a coincidence. At any rate, I no longer have the option to select a file format when clicking on "Edit book." I've closed/restarted Calibre several times as well as powered down my laptop with no effect.

How can I resolve this?
