I ran into similar issues today. I cut a big chunk of text and formatting, and before I could paste it Evernote crashed, taking with it all the data. Perhaps I could have quickly pasted it into a word document, but I foolishly didn't think of that at the time (and, I'm not certain it was stored in the clipboard cache). But, I thought of this workaround, which might help others with a second device.
- If you have a second device, go into it and find the old note. If Evernote properly crashed, it should still be there. Rename the title slightly so it comes as a new note. Sync.
- As an extra precaution, I also emailed myself the note from my second device (a feature I'd never really noticed before).
- Then, go into your first device and you should have both version of notes - the original (now re-named) and the newer one you were working on. Cut and paste (and cross fingers...) between the notes to get it to how it was meant to be.
It was probably a bit easier for me because I've set it so Evernote only syncs when I shut it down, or when I manually tell it to do so. This might not work if Evernote syncs on start-up, in which case it may over-write the note on the second device before you can access the original note.

Excellent. Works for me on version 6.14.5.7671 (307671) Public. Thanks Robert!
You need to make sure the command prompt is run in elevated status (for Win7: Run > "cmd" > right click > "Run as administrator"), else you might get read/write errors.
Works for the background of the note itself, with a few hiccups. E.g. horizontal line, and code blocks have white background.
Next on my wish-list would be to get the note list and the note header panel to change background colours. Right now hit with a migraine (the reason I really NEED to abolish white backgrounds) but I'll investigate this more later.

Solution to not having white background for notes
in Evernote for Windows Issues (Versions 6.25.1 and under)

Works for me, with small modification. I actually just ran it manually from the command line interface, to see what was going wrong, but used @RobertJSawyer's batch file to guide me. Perhaps because I'm using an older (portable?) version of SwissFileKnife, I had to chage the command to "sfk.exe".
Thankyou Robert!
