Richard Cunningham 2022-03-22: It looks like the previous bug complaints seen in the previous threads have been fixed in release 1.7. Thank you, Andrey, for developing and polishing the program. It worked fine and produced a very nice set of text files containing the Yahoo Notes. Best regards, Rich C

Backup Account 2022-02-27: Works great! Just installed it, because I don't want to lose my old notes. I feel much better having a local copy of my notes now, just in case.

Cho Kule 2017-11-18: Don't see any evidence the app is working after choosing "TXT Backup" or "JSON Backup." Don't see any indication of the zip file that is supposedly being produced - not in the Chrome Downloads folder; not in the PC Downloads folder. Where is it? Is it doing anything? If so, where is the result?

Richard Elkins 2016-11-11: Excellent. Does exactly what I needed. I don't care if it is as another reviewer says "slow"; take your time! Yahoo could have easily provided this straight-forward JSON/extract function themselves. Phooey on Yahoo! Andrey, thank you for the backup.js file and others. Nice starter kit for other projects and good tutorial.
