  1. The issue of distracting colors permanently on the interface - 10.78-2-win-ddl-public - is easily resolved with a sticky note. It's sad but this is what I had to resort to with "brilliant" green and purple in my face 100% of the time. See photo.
  2. I hear you, PinkElephant, thank you. The joy of dealing with proprietary file formats. Prior to Evernote I used InfoSelect, and it was the same situation. "Remember everything" as long as the user takes the time and trouble to move everything they don't want to sync (or to sink, using your metaphor!) out of the Evernote boat. It still feels like a broken promise. Do you think I should bother to suggest a non-syncing Evernote viewer app?
  3. With all due respect, Pink Elephant and Gazumped - and I've appreciated your posts here for many years - you didn't read my post carefully. I first started using Evernote in 2010. I have local private notebooks that I don't want to upload to the cloud. I also have several dozens of archival notebooks that I don't need to sync, because they only cause bloat. I currently have all of this on a separate EN account. To access this non-cloud stuff is why I'm re-installing Legacy and setting it not to sync. What would make me happy is if Evernote could turn Legacy into a viewer of local ENEX files, with no sync capabilities. Allow it to import and export ENEX files, but that's it. This version of Legacy would allow me the backward compatibility I'm seeking, and maybe (I'm not a programmer) meet Evernote's need to avoid conflict between two different database structures. The viewer wouldn't have to be uninstalled each time there's a update, and we all could live happily ever after. Or until Evernote makes another major change. Regarding Lucaszw's complaint, I don't even try to use spell checker with a second language. I agree that it's quite annoying. Thanks, Lena
  4. (I apologize if this thread already exists. I searched the forum for "Evernote update uninstalls legacy" and found no hits among the first few pages.) I reluctantly upgraded to version 10 because I have private notebooks that I don't want to sync to the cloud. Then I installed Evernote Legacy and set it NOT to sync, so that I could continue to access those notebooks. Today I accepted an update to the most recent version and had to agree to have Legacy uninstalled again. It would be nice if the installer had realized that since I already had version 10 installed, there was no need to uninstall Legacy again. "Remember Everything" is no more. Instead, I feel pushed to "Feed Everything to ChatGPT." I was truly annoyed when a prior version of 10 automatically defaulted to AI search. At least the update today didn't reset my choice of standard search. Please give me the choice to run an archival legacy version of Evernote without having to reinstall it, then manually turning off sync, then reimporting private notebooks. If this persists I'll simply stop updates to version 10 until enough significant changes have occurred. BTW - the changes in an update should, ideally, be presented to me BEFORE I choose to install the update, not after. Thank you, Lena
  5. This issue is still not fixed on Windows Release version 6.17. Though the release notes say "- Now there’s one easy place to find all the notes and notebooks that have been shared with you. Check out “Shared with me” over there in the sidebar." the only I thing I see under "Shared with me" is a note shared by someone that I cannot delete.
  6. Thanks, northxnortheast -- did this a month ago not hoping for much but it really fixed the problem. What a shame that this command is hidden in the depths of this forum and in the depths of evernote.exe.
