separating notes in "All Notes" from notes in Notebooks

[Mrsabc 0]

I want to file notes in a Notebook and delete them from All Notes folder. Can I do that? It seems when I delete a note from All Notes, it gets deleted in the Notebook too.

All Notes is exactly as described, it's all your notes.

 

This doesn't mean that you can't have your notes in Notebooks.

All Notes is a "view" of your collection of notes, not a folder (or notebook, in Evernote speak) that can be deleted. As long as a note exists, it will show up in the All Notes view.

Thanks for confirming what seemed to be so. 

 

If I could just open to a different screen than All Notes, when I first open Evernote, that would help. Maybe if I could open to Notebooks, that way my private/personal notes could be kept more private.

 

Can I set my first/default window to something besides All Notes?

Private from whom? Are you sharing your OS user account with someone? Are you mixing work and personal notes?

Note: Evernote doesn't have screens per se, it has filters that narrow down the number of notes shown; those filters can be based on notebooks, tags, dates or other search criteria. So...

You may be able to make this happen, depending on which Evernote client (Mac, Windows, web, iOS, Android) you are using.
