I'm on linux but WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux) is easy these days. Assuming you're on Windows 10 or 11...
3 rabbit-holes
1. Enable WSL and get used to it like how to access WSL files via Windows and vice versa. There are many guides...here is a
video guide (skip irrelevant parts). I like this guy vibe. Or check any other WSL guide.
2. Install one linux distribution (most likely Ubuntu i.e. the default on for WSL).
Upgrade packages,
install KOReader and Joplin (sudo apt get-install koreader joplin)
3. Finally configure Joplin plugin for KOReader and get them sync.
You can install Syncthing either on Windows or WSL and point to the KOReader's home directory. WSL better I guess.
It might seem overwhelming if you never used linux or terminal before but IMO it should be as easy as copy-pasting commands.
(Alternatively if it's your personal laptop/desktop...and you're comfortable...completely replace (or dual-boot) Windows with linux (some beginner friendly distro like Linux Mint). Not the best advice to someone who just want note syncing but linux gives you much more configuration options and more user-power. Again not here to convince to use linux.)
