I think the issue is that the Windows Store offers EN when in S mode. I remember a thread a while back where EN acknowledged v10 doesn't work right. (I thought I saw a post saying it was resolved, but - what were we talking about again?) v6 does not work in S mode. As far as I know, no "centennial" apps do (the whole security issue).

What is edpp?
dcon replied to RedRob's topic in Evernote for Windows Issues (Versions 10.0 and above)
Another thought - wherever the OP was getting that has somebody who is man-in-the-middling. ISPs (and companies) are known to do that. Though they usually wouldn't have untrusty sources. -
Truce offering for Evernote
dcon replied to Faisal Malallah's question in Evernote for Windows Requests (Versions 10.0 and above)
(waves hand) I was looking into at least making more things respond to the current dark "theme" that's there now. Talk about spiraling down a rabbit hole... I remember the list control (the one with columns) gave me particular issues that I never resolved. Had to go back to fixing existing bugs about that time. -
Edit encrypted text

I believe Plus gives you access to note history. (or is that a premium feature - I honestly don't remember...) -
This one is too. But what we (users) consider critical can easily be different from what the company does. And often there simply is no good response to some the of criticisms, so they refrain. (Yes, I know from personal experience - I worked there for 6 years. Some of us were a little more willing to post here than others.)

Passcode protection on a pc
dcon replied to w00t w00t's question in Evernote for Windows Requests (Versions 10.0 and above)
I will say, during the 6 years I worked on the Windows platform, a lock feature was never even discussed internally. All I'll say to that is "Thank $deity!" I really wouldn't have wanted to implement an entire security system within that code. (Do you know how easy it is to get security completely wrong? **shudder**!) -
Locked out of account
dcon replied to Chris B2's topic in Evernote for Windows Issues (Versions 10.0 and above)
Something to be aware of - as far an EN is concerned, "name+tag@address" and "name@address" are 2 completely different accounts. (As an ex-evernote employee, that was a great way to create a bunch of test accounts) -
It sounds like somehow the size of the window was made larger than the screen. I don't run v10 (you can take v6 from my cold dead keyboard!) so I don't know if this will work - press alt+spacebar (brings up system menu), use arrows keys the select 'Move' (press return), press any arrow key (to start the move), then use the mouse to get the caption visible. You should be able to resize it then. This should work with any windows program - unless the program is doing something truly funky. This even works when a program thinks it is located a million miles off-screen. (I used to have to do that regularly with Firefox many years ago)

Excessive RAM use
dcon replied to A brother in Christ's topic in Evernote for Windows Issues (Versions 10.0 and above)
This is entirely expected when you use CEF (Chromium Embedded Framework). (Dear Lord, Please let me never have to deal with CEF in my career again...) -
Well, yeah, if you completely rewrite export/import then anything can be done! Even just adding the note's GUID to the export is not sufficient - because the current export has no notebook information. If you modified the import procedure to allow selecting multiple enexs and assigning each to a notebook on import, then you could reconstruct the graph. That's not an insignificant task. (Yes, I've worked on that code in the past - v6, never worked on v10 before I left)

Except for one very important fact. When you import an enex back into Evernote, it is created as a new note. So that old GUID is basically useless. Ok, you could keep a complete history of every GUID a note has had. But now when you import that, do you want to link to the old (possibly existing note)? Or to the note that's in the enex that you're going to import in a couple minutes? Clairvoyance is hard! And, no, importing a note back in with the same idea would be a very bad idea. What happens if that old note exists? What happens if you're offline and that note does not exist locally but does exist on the server? As you can see, it's not a simple issue. (BTW: Note GUIDs are assigned by the server - never by the local app - even when you're offline.)
