Catherineda 0 Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 I use Evernote to keep all of my recipes in France and the US. Recently, another application vendor whom I have relied on and used daily for my music released a newly revised version of their application with most of the key functionality “delayed”. Now it is worthless to me and I’m searching around for a work around. That alerted me to wonder whether there is a way to quickly back up all of my recipes that are now stored in Evernote in a manner that I can read and edit them should Evernote ever fail me. Can you help? Link to comment

Level 5 PinkElephant 8,784 Posted May 17 Level 5 Share Posted May 17 Evernote Backup project on GitHub https://github.com/vzhd1701/evernote-backup Install - Run - Done. Doesn't even require an active client on the device. Can run on a server, NAS or in a Docker as well. Link to comment

JDCis 19 Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 I don’t have much scripting knowledge but will give it a try. Thanks. Link to comment
mackid1993 1,243 Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 This is the batch file I run with task scheduler on Windows. Mine is set to run daily, but you can run weekly or any interval you please. Before running this you have to run evernote-backup init-db then login then save the following in a batch file alongside evernote-backup.exe, change paths for your system. On Windows at least some AV marks evernote-backup as malware, it is a false positive so create an av exclusion. evernote-backup sync -d C:\path\to\en_backup.db evernote-backup export C:\path\to\Notebooks -d C:\path\to\en_backup.db --overwrite ping 127.0.0.1 taskkill /f /im evernote-backup.exe exit Link to comment
