I've been using KOreader for a while now with no issues so far. Great piece of software.

I unfortunately accidentally yanked the cable before the files had been properly copied to my Kobo Forma. KOReader still works but there seems to be phantom files. For instance, a few CBZ files and folders appear in File Explorer when looking at the Kobo file structure but don't appear in the Kobo reader library page on the device while it is in use. I've tried deleting and copying back but it doesn't seem to work. Adding other files is fine.

Is there anything I can do here to remediate file corruption?

Version 2022.01
