I got Kobo Libra H2O yesterday and set up the various plugins. I was able to transfer books with no problem. Today I tried to configure the touch extended plugin to manage shelves and collections and I started to get an unsupported database error. Did I do something wrong or is this device too new. I saw that there is an option to use early firmware is that what I need to select. If so what are the potential issues. I assume its from my trying to configure the plugin since I didn't get the error message yesterday, but I think I undid all the changes I made and am still getting the error. Any help appreciated. Error message below.

calibre, version 4.23.0
WARNING: Failed: Kobo database version unsupported - See details

Your Kobo is running an updated firmware/database version. As calibre does not know about this updated firmware, database editing is disabled, to prevent corruption. You can still send books to your Kobo with calibre, but deleting books and managing collections is disabled. If you are willing to experiment and know how to reset your Kobo to Factory defaults, you can override this check by right clicking the device icon in calibre and selecting "Configure this device" and then the "Attempt to support newer firmware" option. Doing so may require you to perform a factory reset of your Kobo.
Device database version: 161.
Device firmware version: (4, 24, 15676)
