Are you using calibre with the Kobo Utilities plugin to allow you to save the reading status of your books? If so, a true factory reset would be best. Either enable the developer menu and use the factory reset option from there or do the manual factory reset.

Manual Factory Reset
  1. Charge the eReader for at least an hour
  2. Make sure it's connected to Wi-Fi
  3. Press and hold the power button until the screen says "Powered off"
  4. While holding the page turn button, press and hold the power button again
  5. Wait for the screen to flash and start the reset process

When you use KFMon, you can open Plato, etc. by tapping on an icon showing in the book list. NickelMenu can launch Plato and KOReader directly. If you look at the KOReader or Plato items in /.adds/nm, you will find they have two ways of launching the app.
Quote:
# Launch KOReader via KFMon
# NOTE: .adds/nm/kfmon will generate this automatically
#menu_item : main : KOReader : kfmon : koreader.png

# Launch KOReader directly via NM (>= KOReader 2020.05)
#menu_item : main : KOReader : cmd_spawn : quiet : exec /mnt/onboard/.adds/koreader/koreader.sh
This discussion is beginning to look much like the ones in the Kindle forum about WinterBreak where reading comprehension seems to be at a premium. In most cases, reading the instructions at least once instead of jumping right in is the best way forward.

To quote the first lines of the first message in this thread:
Quote:
You'll find here links to so called "one-click" install packages for both KOReader & Plato.
This is primarily aimed at brand new users, with the goal of getting things to work in the most fool-proof manner possible, by simply unpacking a single ZIP archive into the root of your Kobo eReader over USB.
To make this possible, these packages bundle KFMon & NickelMenu.
