Reading my Borders Books on Kobo Desktop
I bought about 10 ebooks books from borders.com. I read them all with my borders desktop reader. Borders.com has since shut down.

Yesterday, I opened my borders desktop for the first time in 2-3 years. It automatically uninstalled itself and installed Kobo Desktop. When I open Kobo Desktop and enter my borders email/password, it tells me that it's invalid, and the "forgot password" link is dead.

Any solutions would be most welcome.

Did you migrate your books to Kobo using the link in the many emails that were sent out when Borders closed? If yes, do they show up in your library on the Kobo website (assuming you have an account there)?

I think Peter's right you're going to have to contact Kobo's support folks and hope they can help.
