tools for editing enex files
dconnet replied to actant's topic in Evernote for Windows Issues (Versions 6.25.1 and under)
No. Don't do that. Don't. FYI: Windows does have the enscript utility: (c:\Program Files (x86)\Evernote\Evernote) >enscript -? Usage: ENScript <command> [options] Commands: createNote - creates note from the specified file or url importNotes - imports notes from the specified export file or url showNotes - displays specified notes in the Evernote window printNotes - prints specified notes from the Evernote window exportNotes - exports specified notes into a file createNotebook - creates a notebook listNotebooks - lists specified notebooks to standard output syncDatabase - synchronizes database to the service Type "ENScript <command> /?" to get command specific help. @filename - specifies response file name contaning options one per line. Command line options that follow response file name specification override options specified in the response file. -
Do you know which version was installed previously? I'm thinking it was an earlier version - if you ran that, it should run in repair mode and fix the broken installation. The installer you're running thinks the old version is still installed and is attempting to do an upgrade - part of an upgrade is uninstall - and that's what's failing (because the MSI was lost in the migration - which a repair will fix)

Where is my menu bar?
dconnet replied to Bob Newman's topic in Evernote for Windows Issues (Versions 6.25.1 and under)
(If you don't see a menu bar, you're probably running the web version. I rarely use that, so I don't know how you print from there...) -
Import folder not working
dconnet replied to JellyFox's topic in Evernote for Windows Issues (Versions 6.25.1 and under)
File-changed notifications are notoriously bad on network devices. (Not the same reason we don't support putting the exb out there - that's because file locking is notoriously bad.) -
These are the hated bugs - random. Very hard to repro and fix. Sigh. An alternate to rebooting: Open Task Manager and kill the running Evernote processes. You can leave EvernoteClipper.exe - that's not what prevents EN from starting again. It's the Evernote.exe, EvernoteSubprocess.exe, and EvernoteTray.exe processes. When the main Evernote.exe crashed, it died in such a way that the other processes didn't catch that and proceed to act very badly.

Dark Mode for Windows
dconnet replied to Georgi Georgiev's question in Evernote for Windows Requests (Versions 6.25.1 and under)
That. Edit: BTW, I should mention I played around with trying to expand our current theming to the list controls (standard windows controls) that we use for the note list. It was a complete failure at making it look right. -
Dark Mode for Windows
dconnet replied to Georgi Georgiev's question in Evernote for Windows Requests (Versions 6.25.1 and under)
Precisely. My (very rough) estimate is that it would be a minimum of 6 months of effort. Almost everything in the UI is custom drawn. (Actually many of the custom drawn things are probably easier to update than some of the standard windows controls are!) -
Right Click Delete

You're not the only one... -
Right Click Delete
dconnet replied to an idea in Evernote for Windows Requests (Versions 6.25.1 and under)
It's now called "Move Note to Trash" (the reason (so I was told) was people were confused about whether the note was really deleted or just in the trash) -
Dark Mode for Windows
dconnet replied to Georgi Georgiev's question in Evernote for Windows Requests (Versions 6.25.1 and under)
I meant the Evernote windows version. I have zero insight into what Microsoft is doing! (And the version we have in the store is not a UWP app - it's the exact same binary you get when you do a direct download and install. -
Dark Mode for Windows
dconnet replied to Georgi Georgiev's question in Evernote for Windows Requests (Versions 6.25.1 and under)
Most other platforms get dark theme support for free. Windows does not. (The Windows dark theme support you hear about is only available to UWP apps. That's not us.) The likelihood of the current Windows version supporting a true dark theme are about 0.1%. -
How to see reminders?
dconnet replied to rodolfoespinosa's topic in Evernote for Windows Issues (Versions 6.25.1 and under)
Ah, sorry... The reminder list has not changed in Windows. It is not in either of the list views. (And unless something changes, there are no plans I know of to add it.) -
How to see reminders?
dconnet replied to rodolfoespinosa's topic in Evernote for Windows Issues (Versions 6.25.1 and under)
FYI: All features that were in Beta2 are in the current Beta3. (It was the first Beta3 release that was the pain-point.) -
AUS English language setting
dconnet replied to etf123's topic in Evernote for Windows Issues (Versions 6.25.1 and under)
As you can see in the drop list, en-US is the only variant of English that we support. -
Emoji support on Desktop
dconnet replied to dalelane's question in Evernote for Windows Requests (Versions 6.25.1 and under)
How an emoji renders is dependent on the font used. Not all fonts can display all characters. Different fonts may be used in different areas of the program - we do support user specified fonts for the caption (this is a per-client setting - not a syncd property). -
win 10 sync

Toggle Breakpoint! -
win 10 sync
dconnet replied to Rob25's topic in Evernote for Windows Issues (Versions 6.25.1 and under)
Just a terminology clarification (at least when I talk about them!). In EN, F9 is an "accelerator". Cortana's F9 is a "hotkey". The difference is an accelerator will only work when an application has focus. A hotkey is a system wide hook that works no matter who has focus - as such, the app who registers first wins - and all others lose. It's a constant battle! (EN does have some hotkeys - these are configurable in the Options dialog. Accelerators are not configurable.) -
It sounds like this is doing the 6.17.7 upgrade (which is really a downgrade). Since you're on beta2, skip this. A new Beta3 is now available and will upgrade in the way you expect.
-
True. We probably should have - it would still be 6.18.3 tho! (because of the MSI update issues I talked about before)
-
We try to avoid this style upgrade - as I noted, we re-release Beta3. So MSI sees this new version as the same version as the old Beta3 - this is the same-version upgrade path. It's not very user friendly, so we try to avoid ever doing this publicly. However, the old Beta3 has a newer version of CEF - so any upgrade from that would cause "very bad things" to happen (because we would be violating MSI component rules). We made a conscious decision to inflict that same-version upgrade so the CEF dll downgrade would properly install. Probably as clear as mud now. tl;dr: Installers are hard. Downgrading files during an upgrade is harder.
