- installed the Kobo utilities (database check returns: OK
- set up a backup of the database as soon as the e-reader is connected.

For the moment, it's working well. I still wonder what the origin of this dysfunction was. A firmware update?
On the other hand, the ADE page numbers are no longer displayed in the margin, whereas when I used ADE to copy the books on the e-reader, they were present. But this is a detail of no great importance, and I thank you again for providing me with this solution.

Sincerely,
R.G.
The database problem is something with the firmware. That's all I know. Maybe someone else will know more about it.

Once you reboot, you can do the second connect to USB to update the metadata without worrying about database corruption. You can connect for as many times as you want as long as you've not yet started reading.
