Calibre Kobo sideload

Hi,

I am using calibre to sideload pdfs to my kobo touch. It used to work fine, but it's been a while now since it started to go awkward: when i send a pdf to the device, the task minitoring windows indicates that it is in process. But then it takes forever and the completion bar never advances.

I have reste my Kobo to factory settings, and successive calibre updates failed to solve anything (now using 0.8.36).

Any idea?

Thank you
