Gabriel Wolf 1 Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 Good morning, I've recieved an error each time I try to open Evernote Desktop. I've logged out and back in, reinstalled evernote, and am still getting the error. I verified that the path is available. Anything else I should do? Thank you,Gabriel Wolf The dialog box says: 'Could not open Evernote database in "C:\Users\foo\AppData\Local\Evernote\Evernote\Databases\foo.exb". Error: CANT_CREATE_TABLE Please verify that the path is accessible and try again.' Link to post
Level 5* gazumped 7,745 Posted May 12, 2015 Level 5* Share Posted May 12, 2015 This seems to be a windows error occasionally thrown up after an update.. the trick apparently is:exit Evernote (if it didn't already crash)backup your databaserename the database folderrestart Evernote and log in - your database will rebuild from the server.NB any unsynced notes and local notebooks will be lost if you do this. If that's a problem, please raise a support ticket: choose "login/account access issue" in the first dropdown after logging in here> https://www.evernote.com/SupportLogin.action Premium / Business users also have access to a Chat option (7am-7pm PST weekdays) - click 'continue' on the support page after logging in. (If Evernote still runs normally, you can export unsynced notes and local notebooks to ENEX files and re-import them later) Link to post
