That isn't expected. If the image has been restored correctly, the device should boot to the setup screen. Or...

Then a new image with a Kobo connecting to a PC (there's no text at all asking to download Kobo-setup).
Or maybe this one. But, that screen actually sounds like a powered off screen. Turn it on and see what happens.

I connect the Kobo to a PC with Windows 10 but now it's not recognized by Windows. Nothing happens.

How can I solve this?
Try a manual factory reset. The instructions are on https://help.kobo.com/hc/en-us/artic...-your-Kobo-Glo. For the state your device is probably in, for the first step, turn the device off by holding the power switch in the off position for about 20 seconds. That will force the device to power off but it will not update the screen.
