Hi, Roy. I haven't tried to manually save them, except as I described above (by pasting them in a Word document). My User Files Location is c:...documents\e-sword\. Funny thing, though, my previous notes were all under the Topic Notes tab! That's great! I don't know how they got there, but that works for me. I had closed it last night expecting my notes to be gone when I opened it today, but when I opened e-Sword, the Topics tab deployed and my notes were there. Perhaps I should be using that tab instead.

Thanks to everybody for attempting to assist me. I greatly appreciate it.

I don't believe you understand my question. Let's say I open e-Sword and bring several Scriptures over into the Study Notes pane. Let's say that I have an appointment, so I close e-Sword and shut down my computer. When I had Windows 7 (and Vista), I could restart my computer, reopen e-Sword, and the Scriptures that I brought over would still be there. Now, with Windows 10, they are deleted when I reopen e-Sword.

 

Is there a way to retain what you've brought over like all previous versions?

Your not alone when it comes to saving your work in notes.

After downloading windows 10, I had the same problem.

So just before I left I started clicking on the far-left save I-con. (You know, that little picture of a floppy disc.)

Then Windows 10 and my virus program wiped out my other Lap-top.

So currently we're using my wife's Lap-top.

I do pray this helps.

Hello, I am loving E-Sword. Thank you.

I am having the same issue with my journal notes, study notes, and topic notes not being available (saved) after I log out. 

I do not attribute it to any Microsoft updates because I can enter and save a note, close E-Sword, reopen it, and the notes will be gone.

I'm wondering if the path to the user notes got confused, and it is opening a fresh instance of E-sword instead of previous saves.
