This "update" looked like the version you'd get from Windows Store. And it changed (at least the Notes I looked at) roughly 50% of the links to evernote.ocm and left 50% the way they were with the evernote:///view... Funky. So the evernote.com links opened up my browser and displayed the note. So I'm in Evernote, click on my supposed "internal" link, and it open Chrome and displays it on browser. Freakin' bizarre. Stay waaaay away from the Windows Store version of Evernote.
btw, this beta 6.17 was an App, And installing it removed my original version. That kinda suck because long ago you could have the Windows Store version (try it out) w/o removing your original version. No more Beta for this dude. Thanks for the assist!
