I installed Evernote Legacy. So far, so good! In fact, it seems to be much faster and more responsive than my older Evernote. Thank you both.

> Any idea what version you upgraded from? @gazumped Since the new version overwrote my previous Evernote application, the best I could do was pull the app from a backup, which was version 7.12. I don't see any kind of Tools->Options there or anything that mentions updates. Bugfixes are great, but forced updates that remove functionality should IMHO never happen without user opt-in. @PinkElephant Thanks, it sounds like I might be able to cautiously try out 7.14. Thanks also for the pointer to DEVONthink. It sounds like no one has an Evernote answer for the key features I need: multiple windows and local notebooks. If these are simply not possible with non-legacy Evernote, I'll have to find a new solution and abandon Evernote - migration is not an option without those features. A shame.

Yesterday morning I opened my laptop and Evernote wanted me to log back in. I did and discovered that it had silently self-upgraded to 10.27.5. This breaks my ability to use Evernote in two ways: (1) It seems only to allow one Evernote window to exist. I keep an Evernote window open on each virtual desktop so I can maintain state (and notes) for each of my projects. (2) It does not allow local notebooks. My employer does not allow content about some projects to be stored on external servers, so I need local notebooks. Does anyone know if there are ways to get these two functions back? If not, I'll have to give up on Evernote. For now I pulled my previous Evernote (7.12) from a backup, which may be hopelessly outdated, but at least provides these two functions. I'm also not pleased that the app auto-updated. I would welcome any tips about how to preclude that in the future. I don't see anything in preferences about it. Thanks!
