lbit 1 Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 After upgrading to 10.10.5 it seems evernote cannot autostart at user-login anymore and I cannot find any option to enable that. Is this still possible at all? Link to comment
Evernote Expert agsteele 3,059 Posted April 12, 2021 Evernote Expert Share Posted April 12, 2021 Create a short to Evernote 10 in %AppData%\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup Link to comment
lbit 1 Posted April 15, 2021 Author Share Posted April 15, 2021 Sure but 1) That's definetly less convenient than the previous UI option 2) starting it in this way, Evernote is started opened. You can change the shortcut to start it minimized , but sill Evernote starts opened. What I'd like is it to just start in the notification area ! Is there a command line parameter to make it just start in the notification area? Link to comment

No. You have to create the shortcut manually. You are correct, that there isn't a method to open Evernote v10 closed but in the notification area - at least there may be some clever third-party software that will do it but nothing built in.

BernieO 11 Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 This may not be ideal, but I pin Evernote to the Task Bar so it's always there. First click after boot opens it, subsequent clicks just max or minimize it. Link to comment
lbit 1 Posted April 18, 2021 Author Share Posted April 18, 2021 Evernote can still happily live in the tray area (once you have started it and then closed), which is 1) the best solution in my opinion 2) the normal "idle" position of evernote when closed by design, and 3) what the tray has been designed for. Older versions of evernnote included an "evernotetray.exe" executable that could be used to start it in the tray, but now v10.10.5 has lost both the autostart option and that executable, so there seem to be no easy workaround to keep the good old behaviour and only palliative and much worse solutions (if you link it in the autostart folder it starts maximized; if you pin to taskbar it is not autostarted at all AND takes space in the taskbar....) - so, a considerable step backwards in my opinion.... 1 Link to comment
grubsch 0 Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 Looks like most of the million evernote user don`t care or don't use windows. My two cents: I would really appreciate if we had an option to start automatically with windows minimized in the systray. Link to comment
