I tried the android version bc I was tired of unsuccessful tries on Kobo desktop (W11). But I used it, the file was located in `%localappdata%\Kobo\Kobo Desktop Edition` as it should be, and files there were constantly updating when opening/closing the app and the book. So I'm sure it was the right location.
Also I want to note that the book I owned never let me download it, I even tried on a difference device and the download icon was only showing for a few seconds after re logging to the desktop app (I assumed it was autodownloading, but it may be a difference with the Kobo JP store, which I know prevent some books to be downloaded).

I inspected the sqlite file and it contained a table called userkey, but a very small one weirdly enough.

I downloaded the 'DeDRM_tools_7.2.1.zip' available on github, and installed both the extension successfully (Obok and DeDRM). I'm fairly certain the issue lies with the fact that the file doesn't contain my (full) userkey. But I can't be sure bc that's the only book I own on Kobo.
Additionally I went to try the ADE way, but it's not possible in my case because my book can't be downloaded on the website, there is no such option.
