The backup.sqlite file has to be be copied in the .kobo directory of the reader then renamed as KoboReader.sqlite.
Enjoy your reader,

  1. Without calibre running, plug in the Kobo to the USB port.
  2. Copy the databases (KoboReader.sqlite anf BookReader.sqlite) over the existing databases.
  3. Run Windows Explorer and eject the Kobo.
  4. Press and hold the power button until the Kobo starts to reboot.
  5. After it reboots, you may get some eBooks importing depending what you added since the last backup.

That's it. Done.
