Using Calibre, you can make a backup of your database, then attempt a factory reset to see if that fixes the problem. If it doesn't, you can restore the database.

You can also pop open your Kobo, pull out the internal SD card, then mount it on your computer to create a full backup image of the entire Kobo SD card, including the hidden partitions that don't mount when you plug your Kobo into your computer. Then you could experiment with the factory reset and restore things from your backup image exactly as if you had never reset.

For me, the basic factory reset fixed this problem. Hasn't returned in months. Reimporting all my sideloaded books and reorganizing the collections was a pain, but not as much of a pain as my Clara HD being dead every time I went to use it.
