ShixxNOTE Program Documents


Please Note

This whole page belongs to the old ShixxNOTE 6.net version, the one published in the Microsoft Store ↗. Everything below is obsolete and is kept here only as a record. The current version is ShixxNOTE 7.net: see what is new → or download it →.

When ShixxNOTE 6.net was published in the Microsoft Store, the Store required a set of documents to be produced and published on the program website: a privacy policy, a Windows 10 support statement, and a declaration of how the desktop application had been converted for the Store. Those are the documents collected on this page, and they were written for that Store release and for that release only.

The Store version is no longer updated. It still relies on the old Windows network browsing method, which no longer works reliably on current Windows, so it cannot detect computers the way ShixxNOTE 7.net does. The Q&A page explains the difference → in detail. Nothing on this page applies to the current version, which is distributed directly from this website.

Info Notice

I used the Desktop to Universal Windows Platform (UWP) Bridge ↗ to convert the existing ShixxNOTE 6.net application, a Windows desktop application (Win32), into a Universal Windows Platform (UWP) application.
The Desktop Bridge ↗ is a set of technologies that help you convert a Windows desktop application. Porting ↗ the application to Windows 10 is now finished. Here you can see the list of benefits ↗ and the reasons why I did it.

Privacy Policy

The ShixxNOTE "Privacy Policy" explains how your data is used. The application does not collect any data at all: every note is stored locally on your own computer, is never transmitted over the Internet, and is never shared with any third party.
