I use Evernote as a Log, registering the time I did something. Along with bullets, numbers and check boxes, I would like to see the ability to just click and the time in automatically entered at the beginning of an entry in a note. I wonder if anyone else has desired this feature. It would probably be complicated to implement, and only available at the highest Evernote usage level. Here is how I envision it: 6:36 Clipped toenails 7:00 Watched Dog the Bounty Hunter 7:15 :Let cat back inside house as it was scratching at door 7:20 Received message from Spec Ops team that we were "On Alert" 7:30 Entered Spec Ops chopper that landed on street in front of house 7:30 Signing out of personal log. I'm sure everyone out there would find this feature useful in their own way.

I have the same problem. But did use the solution Velox submitted, "Workaround: Printing with Printer "Microsoft Print to PDF" does work. " It works for me, thanks Velox. I am hoping that it is just a bug. I have a Personal Edition so I do pay to use Evernote. But with software like Evernote, that is continually trying to tweak the user levels and payments to generate more revenue, there is always the suspicion that they are going to eliminate features for the lowest user levels, to try and lure you to up to a more expensive user level.

Thank you all for these replies. I will give them a try.

Thanks, I never thought of uninstalling, I just thought the Evernote servers would just upgrade when I clicked "Check for updates". Is it the case that this version is so old that it can't be updated?

Here are specs on this Win 10 laptop: ASUS-NOTEBOOK-MODEL-R541N Intel Celeron CPU N3350 A 1.10GHz RAM: 4GB 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor Windows 10 Home V. 1803 OS build 17134.1304 It is an old laptop I decided to put back in service to use in another part of my house. So even though it is Win 10, are its weak CPU, limited RAM, and old Win10 version not adequate for the latest Evernote versions and that is why whenever I try and upgrade it returns the message that I am "using the latest version of Evernote"? Fortunately I have been able to get the two laptops, one having the latest version, to sync. My main laptop with the following specs updates to newest Evernote version: Processor Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-5300U CPU @ 2.30GHz 2.29 GHz Installed RAM 8.00 GB (7.70 GB usable) System type 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor Edition Windows 10 Pro Version 21H1 Installed on ‎8/‎10/‎2020 OS build 19043.1288 Experience Windows Feature Experience Pack 120.2212.3920.0 Thanks for any help.

Yes, it was lhodges26 in the "Get Early Access to Tasks" part of the forum who suggested singing out and back in, but, he did not include the computer reboot and clicking thru the Tasks Tutorial popup.

Ok, I got rid of it by signing out of Evernote and checking the box to remove data from this computer. Then rebooted the computer, got a big Win 10 update, signed in again to Evernote, but this time, when the tutorial window introducing the Evernote "Tasks" update appeared, I clicked, "Maybe Later". Thank you lhodges26 for posting the partial solution. You didn't include the computer reboot step.

This new "Tasks" version is leaving this widget stuck on the window and there is nothing I seem to be able to do to move it, close it. I tried one suggestion, signing out and having all data removed from device and signing back in but that did not work. I guess I'll try it again and reboot computer. Running Windows 10. Maybe I will just have to uninstalll the Evernote desktop and uninstall and see if that works.

I tried lhodges26 solution above and it did not resolve the issue.

Having same problem. Tasks is just a nuisance for me with that widget or whatever it is in the way.

I am having same problem. I didn't ask for this update and felt insulted by the overbearing agreement we had to sign. Maybe I will find a use for this new feature, but for now, it is just a nuisance.

SORRY I AM USUALLY NOT A SCREAMER (ALL CAPS) BUT THIS NEW "TASKS" UPDATE HAS ME REALLY PI**** OFF! THERE IS THIS LITTLE POP-UP WINDOW FOR THE NOTES AND TASKS THAT IS BLOCKING THE THE SIDE BAR AND NOTE LIST NEXT TO IT AND I CAN FIND NO WAY TO MOVE IT OR TURN IT OFF! I DIDN'T ASK FOR THIS UPDATE AND SO FAR HATE IT. THE AGREEMENT YOU HAVE TO SIGN IS VERY OVERBEARING. Maybe I will come to like this feature but for now it is a nuisance. HOW DO I MOVE OR CLOSE THIS LITTLE WINDOW? I have attached a screen shot of it.

I do a lot of clipping of articles and have been noticing that some seem to be harder to clip or cannot be clipped at all. I clipped one from The New Yorker but in Evernote all the tool bar features were greyed out. So, I think your answer makes the most sense, but, I still believe, without evidence I will admit as I don't know Web page technology, that they would like to disable clipping so you have to pay. Totally understandable, in spite of the cry "the web must be free", they obviously have expenses and I have no right to copy their content. Of course there are sites such as Pocket, where you can read articles and save them on your account. And, my clipping can almost be a type of hording, as I rarely return to the content I have clipped. There just may be a talking point that I want to save that I think might be useful in a discussion or argument.

My totally speculative theory is that web sites are being created to incapacitate, disable, or diminish functionality of any kind of clipping in order to force readers to register and even subscribe thru a paywall. Does anyone else have an opinion or actually have technical evidence of, again, my totally speculative theory? I decided to find out myself and tried several search terms in Duck Duck, and limiting search time to only search the last year, and this search sentence "stop website copying" seemed to be the most successful with only two results that could be considered as addressing the issue. The first is from a site called "Webginner.com" and title is, "How to Prevent Text Selection and Copy/Paste in WordPress (Easy)", and here is the URL: https://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-to-prevent-text-selection-and-copy-paste-in-wordpress-easy/ The second is from the clippers perspective at "askleo.com" entitled, "How Do I Copy Text from a Copy Protected Website?" at this URL: https://askleo.com/copy-from-a-copy-protected-website/ I then used the search phrase "protect website coppying clipping", and did not seem to get results. You can try yourself. Just to be sure I wasn't missing out on something due to my concern that Duck Duck Go is not as effective a web browser as Google I tried the search phrases "protect website from clippers" and "protect website from being copied and the second search produced these results using the Google search engine; "Proven methods for protecting content from being copied" from this URL: https://seranking.com/blog/protecting-content-from-being-copied. Here is a summary of that article; "What are the consequences of website content being copied?" and these are the reasons listed less the explanatory text for each reason: 1. Traffic loss. 2.Drop in rankings. 3.Decreased reader loyalty. 4.Search engine sanctions. 5.Updated website information. Of course what is ironic is that I did copy these summary content from that web site. And it is important to note that most of the protection sites seemed more concerned about plagarism and stealing the website content or structure for re-use as a website by the copier.
