That release predates the new devices. http://build.koreader.rocks/download/nightly/

My Kobo was connected at drive E at the time. Any suggestions?

I would suggest opening a Powershell window and then running the script from there so you can see the results. You did place the install.ps1 script and the .zip file in the same directory? You will need to use .\install.ps1 to execute the script from the Powershell window.

Unfortunately the download it is not packaged in a way I can try it on my Kobo. Is it possible to update the zip file on this thread for Plato to reflect the new update?

1. download install.ps1 following the instructions to unblock it
2. download OCP-Plato-0.9.42_KOReader-v2024.04.zip and place it in the same directory as install.ps1. Do not unzip the archive.
3. open a Powershell window in that directory and run ./install.ps1
4. if all goes well, continue to update Plato and KOReader
5. download Plato-0.9.43.zip.
6. open it with a zip file utility.
7. copy the contents of the .zip file to the /.adds/plato directory on your Kobo.
8. download the latest KOReader nightly.
9. open it with a zip file utility
10. copy the contents of the .zip file to the /.adds/koreader directory on your Kobo.

All the heavy lifting should have been done by the install script.
