export all mpe notes at once to individual text files

Beitrag von neuronetv »

using mpe desktop v2.3 portable on windows 11.
I can't work out how to export all mpe notes from mpe desktop at once to individual text files. if I select all notes in mpe desktop it exports all notes to one big single txt file.
I've got about 400 notes and I can't bear the thought of exporting each one at a time. is there a way to do this?
ps: I have been on google for quite a while with this but nothing works (so far)

It's correct that, in my opinion, this isn't possible with MPE. May I ask why you need 400 text files with notes?

Of course, however you need to use additional software to solve this strange task.
Using another export format than text such as csv will export a file with separators between the individual notes.
If you have the required software, you can split the files into separate files following the description found here (Disclaimer: I did not try out):

I wanted to import them all into samsung notes as a backup and some of the notes I'd like to add pictures which I can't do in mpe.

yes I was thinking maybe a bash script might do the trick but I wanted to exhaust any easier way first. thankyou for the link but I'm a bit confused at that link - the script provided by 137289 - is that a bash script or a windows command thing or a powershell command? its not clear what kind of script it is.

As the article mentions powershell, I assume a powershell script. However I am not familiar with it, but maybe you need to get familiar with.

Thanks for the information, I understand that.
However, it's not clear to me how you intend to import text files into Samsung Notes ?
