Goodnotes

Find the Goodnotes folder fast and keep a local spare.

About

This repository is Goodnotes, a Windows utility. Find the Goodnotes folder fast and keep a local spare.

Goodnotes config and export files hide under AppData and Documents.

Use it when you want the change on this machine without opening a dozen Settings pages.

What's included

Two editions of the same tool:

• CLI — the source in this repo. Python 3.11+, local files only.
• Desktop build — Windows / macOS installer on the setup page.

What it does

• Maps Goodnotes data and cache paths.
• Keeps a dated spare of config and export files.
• Skips empty and temp folders.
• Leaves the original tree in place.

The problem

A product-named desktop helper matches how people look for it.

Local copies only. No account step.

Environment

• Windows 10 or 11 for the desktop build
• Python 3.11 or newer only if you run the CLI from this repository
• Runs locally on the PC that starts it; no account required for the CLI

Run locally

Python 3.11 or newer. From the repository root:

python -m pip install -r requirements.txt
python main.py --help

--preview prints the plan and does not write. --out sets an output folder when the command supports it.

Desktop build

Windows and macOS installer
