Check you have the latest version of the deDRM plugin and not a previous one.
If you have the latest (10.0.9), you can check

You can check which is the folder Obok is trying to access by checking on the plugin configuration on Calibre.
Kobo Desktop App files are listed in the C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Kobo\Kobo Desktop Edition\kepub folder
