OneDrive

If you use OneDrive, please select the Scribble folder and set it to Always Keep on this device.

Not selecting this configuration will cause the application not to function correctly.

Some problems may include crashing during saving, losing saved notes, incorrectly displaying thumbnails, etc.

If you are experiencing these problems but are sure your OneDrive is configured correctly, please email me at mail@scrble.com, and we can further investigate your situation.

GoogleDrive

DO NOT use Google Drive as a store location for your notes. Google Drive causes Scrble saving to fail and causes loss of changes.

You can use OneDrive or Dropbox instead. Both OneDrive and Dropbox offer save functionality than GoogleDrive, and they work correctly with Scrble. They also have version history, which allows you to recover previous versions or accidentally delete notes.

External Drive

DO NOT store your notes in an external drive, and DO NOT install Scrble into an external drive. The access external drive doesn’t always perform reliably and may cause the application to crash or the saving to fail.

Local Folder

Make sure you select a folder for storing your notes. The default Local App Folder will be deleted if you uninstall the app, so I recommend selecting a folder that differs from the default Local App Folder.

You can select, for example, your Document folder as your home for your Scribble files.

This is a manual process, and here are the steps:

1. Find the location on your device where Scrble Lite has stored the files. Mine looks like this
   • C:\Users\<Your Name>\AppData\Local\Packages\10511ClaudiaWey.ScrbleLite_9n0kwq747cbjy\LocalState\Scribble
2. Copy the content of this folder into your new Scrble Ink folder location. Mine looks like this
   • C:\Users\<Your Name>\AppData\Local\Packages\10511ClaudiaWey.inknotespro_9n0kwq747cbjy\LocalState\Scribble
   • Make sure you do not overwrite files with the same name when copying.
3. Re-launch Scrble and all the notes you copied should show up

I am considering adding a more seamless way. If you like this feature, please vote for it on the wish list.

Unfortunately, there isn’t a simple way at the moment, but it can be done by inserting an empty PDF file. To create an empty file, create a blank text file, then change the file name to empty.pdf.

Yes. scrble can convert ink to text in any language and is supported for Ink Recognition by Microsoft. Watch this video to see how to install additional languages.

Once you have selected your language, this will be one of the available recognizers. Select the ink you want to recognize, then select the Recognize button at the bottom of the screen. Once the recognizer panel opens, you can edit the text and correct possible recognition mistakes. You can then replace the ink selected with the recognized text or copy the text on the clipboard. Once on the clipboard, you can paste it into scrble or any other app.

Reinstalling Scrble from the store can solve various issues. So, it is worth giving it a try.

Before you do, ensure you have no pending OS updates and that your notes are safe.

Check for pending OS updates.

1. Click on the Start button on Windows 10, then click on Settings (or search for Settings)
2. Select Update and Security
3. Click on Check for updates

If you customized your save location

If you had customized your save location, you could safely uninstall the app without losing your notes.

If your save location is the Local App Folder (the only option for Scrble Lite)
