Also, I'm a bit baffled as to why you posted to this thread. This is a thread about how to replace the SD card in the devices. Your question has nothing to do with that.
sorry, this was definitely not my best problem report ever, I should not post late at night after a long day... Thanks for the hints about which things to check next.

To why I posted this here:
Replacing the original internal SD card with a 64GB one based on this really nice description of how to do it was the only thing that I changed since the last time I did successfully side-load and now when it suddenly did not work. And I usually start with whatever changed last when debugging problems.

I do still have one question that is potentially relevant for this thread:
* did anyone upgrade the internal card to a 64GB (or larger) one and can still side-load by just copying files? As vfat formatting of file-systems over 32GB is not possible via MS tools, I was wondering whether anything there could possible confuse Kobo's import check...

The import screen was not showing at all, btw. The Kobo also takes a relatively long time (30-45s) to reboot after disconnecting from USB.
I did not change anything in the configuration, though. I will try a few more things based on your suggestions.
