Where Are Save Files Stored On Desktop? #105

Closed AFM-Horizon closed 5 years ago

AFM-Horizon commented 5 years ago

Just wondering where the files are stored on the windows desktop version, all my notes seem to have disappeared and I was hoping to manually search for them!

The files should be located in the application data for electron. I think that's Users\\AppData\Local\encryptic. See https://github.com/electron/electron/issues/10831

I've never tried to recover them via files like that, so I hope that it works for you. If you find them and they're encrypted, I have a script that can decrypt them so long as you have access to your private key. It's not in git, so let me know if you can get that far.

I've had a few reports of missing notes and that's a little worrying, but I haven't been able to reproduce it, unfortunately.

Closing this as it hasn't been updated for some time.

@AFM-Horizon if this is something you're interested in still and want more help, feel free to reopen/let me know.
