Calibre asks which format to transfer to device

Suddenly, for no apparent reason, Calibre pops up a dialog when I click on "Send to Device", asking me which format to transfer to my Kobo, even when there is only one choice. It used to transfer EPUB by default, or PDF if no EPUB were available, without all this fuss. How do I get back to this happy status quo ante?

The device (driver) config must have become corrupted

With the device connected:
Check the device driver settings by right clicking the send to device view icon This brings up the previously used settings.

The question usually gets asked if none of the (driver) selected formats of that book exist in the library.

OK. Instead of clicking "Send to device", I right-clicked and did "Save to main memory", and now clicking normally on "Send to device" seems to work.

You probably changed the default for send to device action to ask for the format. Your recent change would have reset it.
