Malformed means DAMAGED. Every piece of data has a pattern that MUST match where it lands. Malformed may mean something like a Letter is trying to land in a location for Logical... A Mismatch.

It needs to rebuild itself. Data (reading position,,,) may be lost.
Common causes are disconnecting without ejecting AND WAITING for the OK, A power fail during transfer, Kitty on pulls on cable...
Also, if the Kobo is not a color version or Clara BW, make sure the firmware is at 4.38.23038 as that fixes the left open files issue that some have experienced. When you use calibre with your Kobo, don't forget to properly eject your Kobo from the computer using calibre's eject.
