On Windows, the Kobo desktop application downloads the books to "c:\users\username\AppData\Local\Kobo\Kobo Desktop Edition\kepub". The books downloaded are kepubs and might have DRM. The filenames are identifiers rather than names and the files do not have extensions. If you intend to add the books to calibre, you are better to use the Obok plugin that is part of the DRM removal tools.

You can also download the book from the Kobo store. In this case, it will be the epub. For books with DRM, ADE will be used to download the book. For DRM free books, the epub will be downloaded directly.
