Cannot permanently remove highlighting from text

[guitardude109 1]

I have some highlighted text in a note. I can simply select and de-highlight the text, but when I view a different note, and then return to the original note, the text is highlighted again as if I had never removed it. Please help, this is more annoying than the feeling of pulling up your pants and not tucking your boxers down.

This is better if you are using a Mac, best to post in just one forum.  Where did the note come from?  Something you typed, copy/pasted from somewhere, web clip?

Thanks CalS,

The note contains ONLY text I've typed directly into Evernote. Nothing has been copied/pasted whatsoever from any other source.

I am aware of the carrying of weird formatting from copy/pasting things from the web or other sources that is (annoyingly) not removable from the text in the note, but that is a separate issue from this one.

You are welcome.  Glad you have a workaround (from the other thread).  May be overkill, but did you try simplify or remove format?
