Thanks for the index re-build options. Note that the only issues I see at this moment are in the current version. I don't mean to be picking on versions. I use the old version to resolve / verify searches on the current version that seem wrong. The current re-write has come a long way - I'm glad to have it. There are a few features I use in the original version that I rely on. Thanks again

I forgot to post the environment. Sorry. The problem machine is Windows 10, running the latest version of Evernote. The secondary machine that I compare results to is Windows 10, running the pre-re-write version 6.25. This older version still has important functionality I sometimes need. I did some more search results comparisons. It doesn't appear to have anything to do with using a Tag - I see differences without searching with Tags. I've attached two screenshots, searching intitle:purchase* w no Tags, on each machine. The indexing issue isn't strictly time related, as can be seen in these screenshots. Paraphrasing an old friend, it seems to be "data-rot". 'Touching' the note causes the index to be updated correctly with the missing data. This is a tough bug to find, or even to unit test for. 1934 notes in the notebook.

Hi, It is not unusual to have notes missing in the results after a search. Had this forever with the new re-write -- I was hoping this would get fixed. I have two notes with titles: "Techniques" and "Techniques 2", both tagged with "Woodworking", and both updated within a few minutes on January 23rd. The search is for "intitle:Techniques" and qualified by Tag "Woodworking". The result only shows the single "Techniques 2" note. If I update the missing note on another machine and wait a few minutes for the first machine to get the change, the search works and finds both. It would seem that the index is able to lose data over time. I have not tried this to see if it is affected by including the Tag or not. I think it might be the Tag.

This duplication is at least a daily occurrence. As far as Note size goes - one instance of this was on a note of sparse 10 lines. The duplicates had captured various versions as I typed. And, as @emtothegee experienced, the note I was typing in was fine. If I see it happening I can safely trash the new duplicates. If I find them later, I have to work out which to keep. Bothersome, indeed.

I found the Notebook Export to ENEX option, as indicated. Thanks Is there an Export to HTML?? I am given no options. I am at the (retired) PLUS subscription level. Being able to export Selected Notes had been a great option. It allowed me to periodically save just the changed Notes. And Exporting to HTML allowed me to review and cut&paste back into a Note, if necessary. But to use it I need to be able to select more than 50! Large set selection management can be tricky - I hope EverNote is working on it.

Is there an Export Notes feature (and I'm looking in the wrong places)?? Previously, I have relied on the Export to HTML to have older versions to go back to.

After I posted my above msg, I shutdown the other instance I had running. A bit later (a few minutes ago), I edited a Note -- as I was doing that, I saw several new instances appear in the list. I suppose the only thing being sync'ed to at that moment would be the cloud version. I could see incremental changes in the different duplicates. It's like they were snapshots taken every few seconds that somehow got promoted to being Notes. I have been running both instances for years. I tend to be editing two different sets of Notes. I do that partially to avoid sync'ing problems, though I don't think I've ever had one. These duplicates often happen as I'm typing; sometimes I find a duplicate when I've been away and haven't edited anything. Thanks

I am getting "more than one version" a lot in the last few days. If EverNote can identify these, it would be nice to have some help seeing the difference. Since this problem has been around for a while, it would be nice to see a comparison of the 2, 3 or more versions with changes highlighted. This happens to me while using the current version. In some cases there may be another, older (6.25), version, which is running but completely idle. I'm a long time EverNote user. Over years I have only had EverNote trash a note once or twice. It's still very unnerving when it gets mixed up and, in this case, keeps old versions. Historically, EverNote did an excellent job sync'ing changes. For one thing, it would be nice to get back the manual Sync option.
