I've tested and waited 10 minutes. Black screen.
When I plug the USB cable there's a screen:
- Computer detected
- Would you like to connect...?
- Cancel - Connect.
So I click Connect, the screen goes black and it says: Connected and charging
Open Calibre, wait a sec until I can see that the Kobo is detected, send some books, wait a little, and click Device -> Eject this device
The Kobo disappears from the Calibre interface and from Windows Explorer but the black screen remains.
It's only when I unplug the USB cable that the black screen flickers a little, disappears, the black progress bar (importing books) shows and the Kobo interface is visible. I've always thought this was normal behavior but maybe not.
EDIT: I've tried different USB ports in the PC but same behavior.
EDIT 2: Never mind. I've found the reason. I'm logged in the computer normally with a limited account, which by default doesn't have rights to unplug removable devices - though ejecting with Calibre works.
Tested with a regular account with Administrator rights and is working as expected. Eject with Calibre and the Kobo interface is visible right away
