After a year of using calibre, I have acquired a new device and, therefore, a new error that gives me following details:

calibre, version 9.13.0
ERROR: Error: Error communicating with device

database disk image is malformed

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "calibre\gui2\device.py", line 107, in run
File "calibre\gui2\device.py", line 593, in _books
File "calibre\devices\kobo\driver.py", line 2390, in books
File "C:\t\t\apsw-39uykmzm\src\cursor.c", line 223, in resetcursor
apsw.CorruptError: database disk image is malformed

I have attempted:
"turning it off and on again" a couple of times
updating calibre
updating plugins
going to the previous version of calibre
returning to the current version
deleting driveinfo and metadata files

However, nothing changed.
Any guesses on what will finally fix this?
Thanks for help!
