Show hidden files/folders in your file manager if you don’t see them. Change the setting “FrontLightLevel=(number)” to =0, save (save anyway if version lock errors), eject/disconnect, unplug
Or, you could just press the button on the top of the device and turn the light off. I mean, that's what it is for. Unlike some other devices, for Kobo, off is actually off.

And for devices without a separate button for the light, just use the slider, or the side swipe to turn it off.
