Are there other ways I can be told the database is corrupt?

How would Windows do that? As far as I know it doesn't check the device - it merely connects it ----- No?

In all my years of using Readers that is the only thing that has ever given me that warning.

I think I'm getting even more confused than when I began this. LOL.
There was some version of Windows or Kobo that would report there was a "problem" when the reader was mounted by Windows. I seem to recall that some bit wasn't getting set/reset on dismount. I haven't seen the problem in a long time.

Sorry for the confusion.
