I really don't know whats going on with Evernote.. a few minutes ago another update was automatically installed, version 10.84.3 on Windows

And whats new?

All Links are blue now, no longer green.. what a bullshit 😞

they changed the color but they're still not working

some are still green but with a blue underline???

No major error was processed

I am more than frustrated 😞

No, links still all go to Home. Very frustrating! This all worked before.

I fear this bloody beginners who they let program at EN just focus on some minor issues..

now I can create pretty arrows with "->" great 😕

The / command message is due to gain and on/off switch in the next desktop app release in the next day or two.

I wish EN would focus more on some major issues, for example the not working links in filtered notes

this "/" reminds me to an IT collegue who found it useful to start a Screenshot Printer each time you press "p" or "P" and installed this "feature" on every PC in the factory.. let me comment it friendly: If I were the boss of this company, my first action would be to fire this guy... immediatly

Thanks for your input. Your experience is very much the same as mine. I'm not sure that I fully accept your explanation though. If I have a filtered list and click a link to another note in the filtered list it still doesn't work. 

yes, since the filter is still active.. it should be disabled as soon a link is clicked, since a link to a single note is unique without any filter

We need some context. For me:

If I click a link from a note when I am in a notebook or in "Notes" with no filter or search applied the link works correctly

If I filter (for me that is typically filtering by a single tag) the link goes somewhere else, often the homescreen or nothing happens. Sometimes the back button then goes to the correct link.

Opening the link in a new window (ctrl+click on Windows) always works.

Is your experience the same?

this is the same for me (Windows App)

all links work fine when I go directly to a notebook

but no link works if i click in filtered notes and unfortunetly this is the usual way for me to find my notes

My idea is still this:

all filter are still active if I click a link inside a note, found by filter

Example:

I set a filter to all meeting notes with checkboxes not marked (my way to find open ToDo's)

if I click inside this note, for example mail from Tom, Evernote jumps anywhere but not to this mail 😞

and the reason is clear for me:

this mail doesent match my previous set filter since it is no meeting note and there are no checkboxes inside, neither marked nor unmarked

For me this is a very silly programming mistake done only by bloody beginners, I am very frustrated about this error since it disturb my workflow a lot

Okay, rhere was a nice tip here in the forum to press ctl before clicking the link and yes, this works

Links don't launch. All I see is a blank note that never loads or reverts to Home. (Another reason why I was hesitant to upgrade). Everything worked flawlessly in the legacy version. (I use internal links a lot)

I had a similar discussion yesterday, perhaps it helps:

To give feedback to Evernote: feedback@evernote.com. I would recommend not insulting them in your email, but maybe that's just me.

There's also a user who is creating a comprehensive table of issues in v. 10 that need addressing, and it would be good to add this issue to it, if it's not there already:

Thanks Dave, I wrote this to Evernote, and for sure, very serious and not insulting (hope so):

I feel your pain. This is so annoying. Make sure you feed this back directly to EN as it is mainly fellow users on the forum.

I do find though that if you open the link in a new window it normally works. This can be done by ctrl clicking the link in Windows - you don't say what system you are using.

Also sometimes, but definitely not always, if I hit the back button from whatever random note EN takes me to, it will then go the correct note.

Thank you Mike, the tip with ctl-click works and my linked note opens in a new window.. this helps a lot 🙂

btw, my system is Windows 10
