Re: More of an annoyance than a problem but...

Since the database is 97MB "empty", just have to ask, did you go to the trash and empty the trash?

Re: EPIM 64-Bit-Version Windows

For the sake of humor / information I'd like to point out that the only reason MS "killed" 16-bit programs on windows is because of the move to 64-bit. Virtually all 32-bit version of windows support running 16-bit programs, and one of the main reasons to still use 32-bit windows 10 is to ...

Re: [11.1.5] No program icon after Windows 11 update

As a P/s if you have EPIM pinned to the taskbar and the icon is missing than it was probably the windows taskbar Icon cache that got messed up. Since things pinned to the taskbar are just shortcuts. In that case you'll need to unpin EPIM and then run it directly form it's .exe and than re-pin it to ...

Re: [11.1.5] No program icon after Windows 11 update

Have you tried the low tech solution of just finding the EssentialPIM.exe in the program files and then making a new desktop shortcut by either right clicking and going to send to (desktop) or any other method of creating a new shortcut? It's the 'Taskbar icon folks are missing in Windows 11. If yo...

11.1 beta 1 new note toolbar and text wraping

The new note toolbar is unproductive. I'm not sure what issue it's trying to solve either. In small windows it creates a whole lot of problems as nearly every command gets hidden inside "..." menus so you then have to memorize what all these "..." menus have in them which is anno...

I can for example alt+tab out of notepad, wordpad, word with no issues on her system no matter how hard I t...

Re: Can the left hand menu please be fixed soon?

+1 on still waiting for a real fix. Personally I edit the language file to just have a single letter for each one and it works pretty okay, as other have said, getting kind of annoying to have to re-do the manual patch every update though. That said I think it was said that the real fix to this will...

Re: How many notes can I have?

Generally speaking the limit is space on your hard drive. Practically speaking there are some limits, if notes get too long it can cause a lot of issues. Once they hit 2 million words it renders EPIM mostly unusable. However if you are dealing with smaller sized notes then most computers should be a...

Re: Two windows or instances for moving data between modules

I want to attach (not link) many email messages to specific contacts. I say attach rather than link so that I can then delete them from the email. However, I don't see how I can have the email and contact modules open simultaneously to easily accomplish this task. I tried to open a second instance ...

Re: Accidental Program reset

What do you think you accidentally clicked? As far as I am aware the only way to reset user settings is to manually go into your file system and delete the EPIM.ini file. or to "reset" or rather "create a new" database you already get a prompt asking if you really want to close o...

There are times when it would be exceeding handy if you could split screen two different modules at the same time. Email on the left | Calendar on the right Tasks on the left | Notes on the right Notes on the left | Contacts on the right Right now whenever I'm in a state where I have to do this, I c...

Copy/Past can cuase jumpiness in 10.0 notes

When you "past" into a note in 10.0 it can cause the note to jump around. In the attached video I copy a "b" and then Ctrl+v past it in the front of several lines. In 10.0 you can see that some lines cause the screen to jump around. I then switch to 9 and past the same "b&qu...

Font issues in 10.0

I thought I'd make a generic sounding post for people to post any new font issues in 10.0 as I've come up with another one myself. The font rendering issues are causing issues with 3rd party text capturing programs such as the hotkey lookup function in WordWeb. https://wordweb.info/ On any newly hea...
