  1. Yup, not perfect. Create 1x1, paste, stretch the right side. Frame wasn't indented on legacy though. Just an alternative. 🤷‍♂️
  2. Back in the day used to create a 1x1 table and paste the image there.
  3. I flipped to free at the end of 2021 when the value proposition went upside down for me. Well really the functional proposition. In the last six months the few times I went to V10 browser I was offered from 40 to I think 60 percent discounts. As per @s2sailor if you opt to stop your sub you may or may not get a discount offer. Just went to the web version, no discounts.
  4. The number tends to be inversely proportional to the perceived value. The new number(s) seem to have borked that relationship for some in these forums. Offset for a bit by large percentage discounts, no guarantee of future years. Net of it all you get value or you don't. If you don't you can 1 - switch or 2 - not switch and have a less than desirable value proposition but no change. For some it is worst case, less function for a particular use case and higher price. That hurts.
  5. Yeah, slippery slope stuff. What is the feedback/input that crosses the fuzzy line.
  6. Seems to me if a company professes not wanting to lock users into their app then allowing some how to get out threads isn't all bad. The company is then less likely to be seen as trying to trap users in their product. Plus if one checks out the greener grass and finds out it isn't so then coming back is a possibility. IAC, it's their forum and they can do as they like. Personally I find the sometimes noxious nature of these forums more an issue than info on the competition. 🤷‍♂️
  7. Desk chairs on the Titanic, but I think the actual data format per se is SQLite. Why EXB was chosen as a file extension, not sure.
  8. There must be a story in here somewhere ... gazump verb [ T often passive ] UK informal /ɡəˈzʌmp/ UK /ɡəˈzʌmp/ to refuse to sell a house that you own to someone you have agreed to sell it to, and to sell it instead to someone who offers to pay more for it:
  9. @enfan-01 I use Everything as well, daily in fact. Great tool. It is remarkable, "How do they do that!?!, for file name searches but not so much for file content. Hence Windows Indexing for my repository, old EN stuff and new stuff I've been adding for two plus years now. My current Windows search is faster than Legacy and for sure faster than V10. Which actually surprised re Legacy initially. Paperless use case thing.
  10. Disagree. I exported my notes at the end of 2021 and have been using that export since. Obviously more searching with my new stuff. But I still use the EN bits. For example, sell a stock and want to get the buy sheet. Enter the stock name or symbol and acct number if I want to winnow the list. Almost immediately I have a list to review. So, working fine for my use case.
  11. Windows indexing isn't too complicated. Press the Windows key, type Ind and indexing and Indexing Options should appear. Hit enter and you should see a panel like the one below. Click modify and select the folders (root folder will include all the sub folders) you want indexed. Click Advanced - File Types and click the the Index Properties and File Contents button. I only index the folders I will be searching. The indexing is running in the background and doesn't use much resource with focused locations. Relative to tags search for tags*tagname. Assuming you exported tags. For example, tags*workout will return any files with workout as a tag, no matter where in the tag list. Just normal search stuff. To be clear this is a backup repository with easy access via search. Not a replacement for legacy.
  12. You've made my day! Anytime 4 billion pounds of stress is removed it's gotta be a good thing! FYI. If you apply Windows Indexing to the root of your HTML folder(s) you can then search the contents of the HTML and folders via File Explorer. It is fast. This is helpful if you want to do a tag search for example.
  13. The below will create an HTML file and a folder (if the note has attachments) in the export folder for each note in the export set. Easier to access individual notes thin way. Be sure and update Options via the button for all of the meta data you want to include. Best to do a notebook at a time or all. Best to use an Export folder only once. There is a risk of duplicates if you export to the same folder twice. My method was to export by notebook as I did not have that many notebooks though I did have 60k notes. This provides some structure. But if you have less than a couple thousand notes should be fine to export them all to a folder something like EN HTML BU 2024.03.07. Then you can search and view to your heart's content.
  14. Luddite here. For shopping lists way back when I put them in Wunderlist which became Microsoft To Do. It felt like even Legacy was more overhead than I needed for that simple stuff. Plus eminently shareable with significant other. Accessible from any platform I use. I really do prefer everything in one place, but this one slipped out.
  15. No disrespect but not sure how that makes any difference for someone else's use case. If Mitchell does his thing today, Steven A Smith till be depressed tomorrow!
  16. Used for a different purpose back in the day, but the instructions are the same. Yeah, HTML is safer. One oops with firewall or airplane mode and Legacy is gone post 3/23. https://www.evernote.com/shard/s186/client/snv?isnewsnv=true&noteGuid=ec05ed88-ae37-457d-b188-399615a71449&noteKey=00e5278c5643d9fe&sn=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.evernote.com%2Fshard%2Fs186%2Fsh%2Fec05ed88-ae37-457d-b188-399615a71449%2F00e5278c5643d9fe&title=Fixing%2BEvernote%2BWindows%2BClient%2BFreeze-up
  17. Kind of on topic, relative to clipping (and saving emails for that matter), I've transitioned to print to PDF. Mostly from Brave. Eminently searchable and all that. Brave IOS is stellar. It produces a single page very clean visual file. I wish the browser was as pristine. 🤷‍♂️
  18. Basically, make sure you are logged into EN before the time comes. From that point forward: NEVER be connected to the internet when you open EN or EN is open NEVER log of out EN, ONLY File - Exit after using the reference. And you may have to go to task manager to stop the EN clipper task. You can block EN with a firewall rule or simply go to Airplane mode when you want to access the reference. This should prevent the legacy client from connecting to the server. In theory, this stand alone version will last as long as your device. It's a band aid. Additional option, belts and suspenders, is to export all your notebooks to HTML and use native search for reference. All of your attachments will be in the export as well. Sample below of what it looks like on Windows. If you use Windows Indexing on the export folders you can search contents as well, very fast. I think there is a Mac alternative. Pretty slick for a reference library. And you have the HTML of the notes to take elsewhere if you like. FWIW.
  19. I wouldn't be switching from something I had been using for 20 years either, unless they made changes and destroyed my use case or they had a real dumb a$$ attack! Good call.
  20. Yeah, I updated to 13, very nice. The search tool Everything was added which is a sweet option. I doubt if I use 25% of what DOpus has to offer.
  21. Don’t really know. They appeared comparable for me when I compared 3 or 4 years ago. Reviews may even have favored Commander. I think I preferred the DOpus interface and the customization options.
