Roger that. Will give it a try - I was unaware that it would take 'days' to reload a local database copy. Wow. I am unfamiliar with Revo Uninstaller, but will give it a go. Film at 11.

So far, I'm going to forgo the voodoo pins ... now I'm hunting for spikes :) This has to be the weirdest thing I've seen with PC's since the early 80's. Prior to receiving your prompt response to my first post, I had already signed out (opting to not leave a database copy behind) and uninstalled Evernote via the add/remove programs in Windows. Then did a treasure hunt to exterminate any remnants left behind. Then, reinstalled Evernote direct from a fresh copy (10.76.3). That went great and logged in to my Evernote account. FINALLY my local notebook structure matched the cloud version. Unfortunately, my desktop version will not load individual notes, nor will it allow an export of notebooks. (Large or small) An example would be loading the contents of a 21-note notebook, takes about minute to see the thumbnails in the center column; then clicking on an individual notes yields a "note unavailable" message. Clicking "refresh" gets me nothing in return. The last weird thing is that when the desktop software is running, the hard drive light on the PC stays on, like forever. (We're talking 24 hours) Looking at task manager shows nothing else is running except Evernote. Could there be corruption of data somewhere I'm not looking? Something is definitely broken here, last week everything was humming along. What's changed? Once again here I stand at Wit's End.

Hi Folks - Old Evernote user here, now retired, and cleaning out the database (so to speak) Problem: Evernote (latest Windows desktop version) flunks note search by tag. For example, when I click the tag “Fitbit”, I want to see all of the notes tagged accordingly so I may delete them. (Albeit 100 at a time? Whose bright idea was THAT?). Evernote then returns a message that no notes were found, when the tag counter reads 366, and I can physically see the notes in the notebook. Weird. When I try to export said notebook (2,000+ notes); I right click on the notebook name, click Export, and are then blessed with a box where you can select the export type, check/uncheck note attributes, etc. In the center where it’s supposed to give me an opportunity to “split up” the notes into smaller export files. Unfortunately, I get a maddening spinning green circle which will in fact spin for over 2 days if you let it. (I have). Prematurely hitting the Export button yields failure. SO. Now I’m wondering if my local database is whacked somehow. I have exported smaller notebooks (>1,000 notes) with multiple tries, and limited success. Is there a procedure for deleting the local database, and insuring a clean download of the database in the cloud?? Any advice, guidance, black magic voodoo that can be offered would be greatly appreciated. I’m kinda at wits end here. Thanks! Joe
