This is "After reading this thread, I think I missed a bullet." I ended up reinstalling the last Legacy version which worked for me. The new version was getting me down. I DID move one "project" out of Evernote to "OneNote" before I tried reinstalling the Legacy version. I find the Legacy version works like it used to. Why the stress? The New Version is out there if I want to go to it. It appears at this point the Legacy vs New are just user Interfaces to the database for the most part. New does undo formatting in the Code Block, but those LINKS which were the wrong color and thus BROKEN in the New App, will work again in Legacy. You can switch back and forth between the apps for broken/working. So on occasion I get the suggestion to upgrade. I already did. It just gives me an opportunity to say "go away". So I am cool, working in Legacy and now, for one project, in OneNote.

This is "After reading this thread, I think I missed a bullet." Also, if I use <ctrl><click> to open an Evernote, there is NO REASON to open the Application EVERY TIME. I closed the bulky Application for a reason and I am running out of a smaller Evernote (bigger now because of the whitespace) at the BOTTOM of the right monitor because at the top we get bad behavior. I must be unique, but I have had over a decade to tune this app.

This is "After reading this thread, I think I missed a bullet." I have been using Evernote since December 17, 2011. I have a small investment here in notes so I will not be jumping ship. Not smiling either. With any upgrade, there are manual things to be done. Notes to be REFORMATTED. I had this nasty habit of coloring some of my Evernote links. Little did I know Evernote wants those links to be the color they assigned. You can make the linked text bold, but don't change the color or else <ctrl><click> will not open the link in a window. Also, all the Code Blocks which use any formatting have to be replaced with tables. When I got into computers we had terminals which were 80x24. When you were remote, the terminal opened the page in 4 chunks. So I learned how precious screen space was. So, yes, the oceans of empty white space all around is NOT a feature to me. It is an irritant.

This is "After reading this thread, I think I missed a bullet." and I remember the 1st thing I did not like about the upgrade years ago. I use as little real estate as possible, but now all NOTES have an extra inch at the top taken up for their glorified header area. There is a lot of white space added to ever side (settings are for full window) Spoke too soon. The 2nd note opened in its own window must have been smarting for the previous comment. The header is off screen. Cascade Windows to get at them. I have lost some links from one evernote to another. Not all though. Not sure why. I can copy the internal App Link of a document, but I can't select my text and use <ctrl>K, nor the new <cmd><alt>K. <cmd><alt>K does bring up a dialog to paste the the link but then says it cannot find the document. If I navigate and find the document, then I LOSE my text as it is replaced with the document title. I see why I lost some Evernote Links. I used the Code Blocks. The Code Blocks lost much of their formatting. Code Blocks were handy to contain text to a size which worked in Windows AND in Android and helped organize things. I suppose I can convert Code Blocks to Tables. I see what it is with the Evernote opening with the header off screen. If I have ANY Evernote open on the larger monitor in the upper half, then Evernote is going to open any Window Note too high on the laptop. New habits to remember. No Evernote in the top half of the right monitor. This would be a BUG.

This is a long thread. I am on Windows version 6.25.1.9091 (309091). I have been using Evernote on both Windows and Android constantly. The way I use the Windows Client is I have a Note opened OUTSIDE of the Application, which is like a web page. It has links where I drill down or Open another window. I tried a newer version of Evernote and all Opened NOTES opened inside the application because, presumably, that is how the developer uses Evernote. I called for help and got the former version of Windows Evernote back. Whew! (the way I use Evernote, Evernote takes up less than 1/4 of a screen. I am doing other things and the Evernote is an assist, sometimes. The way the Evernote application prefers to run is, what, is there anything else to do but be in Evernote?) I ALSO have been seeing this upgrade now a couple times a week. Today, I thought I would bite the bullet and see what's so wonderful here. The installation will not run because Evernote installation cannot find VMRunTime.dll and MSVCP140.dll After reading this thread, I think I missed a bullet. The ONLY issue, which is not an issue really with the Windows version, is if I plan on accessing a note in Android pretty quickly after Windows note was changed, I need to click on Sync. That is not hard to do.
