Amongst the quirks this past version has is added whitespace at the bottom of each page despite my .css settings of widows and orphans being set to 0.
As @DNSB stated, you should use "1", not "0". The device seems to interpret 0 as 1, but, maybe that has changed. But, overall, I don't think the widows and orphans handling has change. The footer has changed, so it might seem that there is more space at the bottom. But, I am pretty sure the text goes down to the same place as before.

The card is new in the past year, the same issues have occurred with the previous, older card so I doubt it's that. It *could* be the reader, but again it happened before I updated the firmware (the previous firmware couldn't read the card, so I had to do an update of the firmware).
At the moment, I would recommend updating to at least 4.23.x firmware. This has updates to underlying filesystem tools that drastically reduces the how often Windows prompts to check the filesystem on the device. This should help with your problem.

But, I would really recommend 4.25.x. The dictionaries updates in 4.24.x are a vast improvements and the other changes are good. But, there some fixes to the dictionaries and in other places that are worth it.
