Kindle will not mount in Win 10

I

I have spent almost 2 weeks applying suggested fixes to make Win 10 mount my Kindle Paperwhite as a drive, so far nothing works - but I now have further information which might help...


My first post was this:

My Kindle 32GB e-reader does not appear as a drive in Win 10 when plugged in via USB, so I cannot transfer files to it from my local library. Likewise it does not appear in Calibre. However I can see it using the Win 10 disk management app, where it appears as a drive with unallocated space of around 28 GB.


I have tried all the fixes I can find online, plugging in through different USB ports, using different cables, different computers, even a ubuntu machine. My software and drivers are up to date on both Win 10 and the Kindle. The Kindle will reset and update when rebooted via Wi-Fi, but I still can't see it as a drive in Explorer or a device in Calibre (or the Kindle app).... Although it otherwise seems to be working fine - I can connect to the Amazon store ok - and Windows always knows it is there as it is listed as online by the disk management app




Since then I have factory resert and rebooted to no avail, but Windows and Calibre CAN see the Kindle - just not use it!. This the debug from Calibre - it is detecting the device but unable to access the storage:
