mczin 68 Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 Does anyone know, how one can search notes in the trash? Link to comment
0 Level 5 PinkElephant 8,773 Posted October 30, 2020 Level 5 Share Posted October 30, 2020 In the iOS v10 client, if you go to the trash notebook (at the bottom of the left side panel), there is a special search field to select notes in the trash. You can then selectively delete them (without emptying the whole trash), or reactivate them. Probably all v10-clients are similar. Link to comment
0 mczin 68 Posted October 30, 2020 Author Share Posted October 30, 2020 @PinkElephant Thank you for your answer. But I was asking for search in trash in the new WIN client. (I don't know, why it was tagged by ios, sorry for confusion) Link to comment
0 Level 5 PinkElephant 8,773 Posted October 30, 2020 Level 5 Share Posted October 30, 2020 1st still on legacy with Mac & Pc 2nd the v10 clients are said to behave similar. In legacy you had to choose the trash notebook before searching. Then it searched in the trash, and only there. This did not work with v10 any longer, at least not on iOS. Link to comment

The windows version doesn't seem to behave the same as the ios version. There is no special search box. When in trash hitting the search bar does not give the option to filter in trash (as a normal notebook would). In short I haven't yet found a way of doing it. Link to comment
0 mczin 68 Posted October 30, 2020 Author Share Posted October 30, 2020 @Mike P That's what I observed too. You cannot search in trash. Hope EN delivers that feature, because that's very helpful.... Link to comment
0 scojjac 62 Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 Sorry to resurrect an old post. I've noticed you can search trash on Web, but you can't easily restore multiple notes. It's the reverse in the Windows app: you can't search Trash, but you can easily restore multiple notes. I wan't to search trash AND be able to restore multiple notes at once. Link to comment
0 Level 5 PinkElephant 8,773 Posted March 31, 2022 Level 5 Share Posted March 31, 2022 Just open the trash notebook (it is in fact just another notebook, with special properties) and start a search. It should preselect the trash as search filter and deliver notes found. You can then select and restore. Link to comment
0 Evernote Expert agsteele 3,059 Posted March 31, 2022 Evernote Expert Share Posted March 31, 2022 I presume that works on a Mac. The Windows desktop not so. I searched for a word that I could see in a note in Trash having pre-seoected the Trash folder. It returned one note from an entirely different notebook ie nothing from Trash. Link to comment
0 Level 5 PinkElephant 8,773 Posted March 31, 2022 Level 5 Share Posted March 31, 2022 Can’t try on the Mac at the moment. Works just fine on the iOS client. Went to trash, click on the magnifier glass, typed missing as search term. It delivered, and only from trash. The trash notebook filter was preselected by EN. Link to comment
0 Evernote Expert agsteele 3,059 Posted March 31, 2022 Evernote Expert Share Posted March 31, 2022 v10.34 just released has a fix for search in Trash. Speedy response for this I think you stil have to open Trash first. 1 Link to comment
0 Level 5 PinkElephant 8,773 Posted March 31, 2022 Level 5 Share Posted March 31, 2022 Weird enough - it used to work in former releases, so this probably crept in with one of the last release cycles. Link to comment
