Do you mean that Evernote APIs can access the local database directly and also get the changes synced to the server? Thank you!

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)

(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...)

Another question would be what does your log look like? (Help -> Activity Log) There may be some clues in there...

I'm not exactly sure why

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.)

The program would randomly shut down with no warning and no error message a few times during the week. Evernote would not start up again unless I rebooted.

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.

Dunno if that's just development time

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.

Since the note is still on the web, try just modifying that note and resyncing the client. (No idea how it would just "vanish" on the client...)

My interpretation of the response is that it is a bandwidth / priority issue.

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!)

Me, for example.

You're not the only one...

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)

That's Windows. Windows tries very hard to prevent an application from forcing itself to the top (and stealing focus). Raymond Chen has a good blog post about this: https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/oldnewthing/20090220-00/?p=19083

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.

would finally include dark theme for windows

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%.

I am guessing that since you did not address my comment about the reminder view specifically, it must not have been present, whatever I thought I saw in the note list  at the time.

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.)

I could be mistaken, but I am fairly certain I saw that view in the recent beta 2 on the side list (I believe it went away after they had to do some major surgery for the current beta 3, see the discussion), maybe they will bring it back eventually.  Unless I was just seeing things . . . 

FYI: All features that were in Beta2 are in the current Beta3. (It was the first Beta3 release that was the pain-point.)

Rather than not implemented, it seems buggy.

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).

Whats sorry for?

A true dark mode will not be in the next release.

maybe they are finally going to release dark mode soon

Sorry...

a blackout in my notes section of Evernote.

Use the Options dialog and disable hardware acceleration. There's no need to directly edit the registry for that anymore.

Right now, the geocoding failure is expected. At some time in the past, the Google's API changed and now requires an API key (it's not free anymore). So any attempt to translate GPS coordinates to nice names will fail.

They won't show up in the list mode. You need to have your note list in card, snippet, or thumbnail mode.

I'm trying! I rant and rail when designers want the scroll bars to do that. Because saying I hate it is being far too kind!

I suspect we've never even considered users trying to use this as a clipboard format since it's really intended for internal purposes... First, the root element must be "en-clipboard" or we ignore it. I'd have to actually trace into the code to see how validation is expected to work...

Another thought: are you adding the clip as "ENML Format"?

That would be key. Different formats on the clipboard are handled differently. Just pasting ENML as text is not going to work.
