I have been syncing CBZ's for a long time now without issue and the author and other information coming over. Since my Windows 10 reinstall in March I have been unsuccessful in syncing.

At first items synced did not update the database. Then I started getting a malformed database error after connecting the Kobo. I have signed out and back into the device multiple times trying to resolve the issue.

I have since moved to KoboTouchExtended and same issue but without the malformed database error. The update metadata on the device just does not want to work for me anymore.
Those are two separate issues. The errors would have happened if you had been using the KoboTouchExtended driver. The reason I can say that is because the KoboTouchExtended extends the built-in KoboTouch driver. For the parts where database errors could be seen, it is the same code.

The most likely reason for the metadata not to be updating is that when you changed from the KoboTouch driver to the KoboTouchExtended driver, you didn't configure the KoboTouchExtended driver to update the metadata. This is not on by default.

If that doesn't get the metadata updating, then you need to run calibre in debug mode and post the logs for me to look. It is usually obvious what is happening.
