How can I do this? I did the forced update but it never gave me a popup asking about my local notebooks and no where on the new screen does it have the Tools option referenced on the link above. Thank you for any help!

I have the exact same problem, I just want access to my legacy local notebooks so I can export the .enex files. The forced update with no option to extract our data first is outrageous!

Hoping someone can help. I've used Evernote since 2011, just as a free program since I used it on a Macbook with local notebooks only. Nothing synced to the cloud. I just used it for papercrafting database... ie I had a notebook for "stamps" for instance and it would be full of notes each one with the name of a physical stamp set I own, a photo, some card examples, and tags based on images on that set. I had similar for metal cutting dies, embossing folders, you get the idea. Each with up to close to 1000 notes. All stored locally on my macbook and backed up manually to a storage drive. The problem is we moved this past year so I wasn't good about updating my backups and exporting my .enex files. I went to use the program this past week to finally add in some new supplies to my database and do an export/backup and I had a popup that I HAD to update to use the program, I even tried cutting my wifi but I couldn't access my notebooks or do anything but click update. I made a backup of my local evernote folder from my system library and went ahead to install the updated version hoping it would give me a chance to export my local data at least.... it didn't. All my hundreds & hundreds of notes are missing from Evernote now. I know they still exist on my hardrive but how on earth can I access them to export as something another program could read? Thank you for reading & offering any advice!
