I'm running Calibre 8.10. Until recently, when I clicked Send to Device, my mobi book would whizz off to my Kindle without any further ado. I recently lost and have had to restore my preferences file. Now when I click Send to Device, I get a dialogue box asking me to confirm I want to send the mobi format. It's the only format listed in the dialogue box.

**How do I get Calibre to skip the confirmation dialogue?**

In Device—Configure Device, I've tried ticking Mobi as my only preferred format, and I've tried unticking it. Either way, I still get the confirmation dialogue. There don't seem to be any options under "Send to Device" itself to adjust whether or not the dialogue is shown.

What am I doing wrong?
