Koreader crashed, I deleted and reinstalled, it's set up exactly as I had it. How?
Hello! I'm just curious and wanting to understand what happened.
I loaded a bunch of ePubs on my Kobo Libra 2, and after that, Koreader wouldn't open but instead just closed itself. So I deleted the Koreader file and the other file that is usually installed with it. Then I reinstalled all over again. I was expecting to have to set everything up again, the custom font, all the settings how I like it - but when I opened Koreader, I was very pleasantly surprised to find that everything was exactly as I had left it, even the custom font I had installed before. I am super happy about not having to set it all up again, but I'm also really curious how that happened, if I deleted all the Koreader files off the Kobo before I reinstalled again? Thanks ![]() |

What file(s) did you delete exactly? KOReader lives in the hidden /.adds/koreader/ directory on a Kobo. If you delete that whole directory, everything would indeed be gone. You possibly only deleted the launch script?

I've had issues with Koreader crashing like this a few times, the other two times I had to factory reset the Kobo and then start over from scratch, because Koreader wouldn't work even after reinstalling it. This time it did, so it's very welcome news that I won't have to start over every single time! |

Technically speaking accessing that file triggers the launch script but potato potahto.
