I seems to have the same problem as the user has reported about an in compatible plugin. Since then, Joplin can no longer be started properly (white, empty window).
So I must now go back to an older version to deactivate all plugins before I try again the update. But I could not find any information what happends when I uninstall the Joplin via Windows software manager. Will I lost all my data?
I also could not find out in which folder exactly my data is stored. Joplin can no longer be started and I probably can't use a dev console. Any help?
That's my experience as well: Clicking on the tray icon can result in a white, empty Joplin window which returns to normal when re-sized to its maximum. Not a malfunction in the proper sense of the word, but still an annoying behaviour.
You can also make full notes backup to a .jex file. Then you can simple restore all your notes and attachments.
But for plugins the method what @diskalle mentioned, can also help if disabling the plugins will not work.
It can happen, that a malfunctioning plugin can cause this or any misbehavior.
You can also try a parallel portable installation of Joplin to see what will cause a problem.
Also into the portable Joplin you can simply import all your notes from the .jex backup.
By the way, beside a cloud synced backup I highly recommend to make a local backup to the .jex file.
There is also a backup plugin, that can do it automatically, and it is highly configurable.
Hi Guys,
thanks for the tipps.
But in my case the reason was only an incompatible plugin. It was not possible to deactivate it on the normal way. But after I remove this plugin from the folder, I could start it again normally.
