Disappearing Notes entries and how to reinstall Notes

I opened today Notes on my Mac and all the entries disappeared leaving me an empty Notes. I am using the latest OS Ventura 13.0.1 and Mac Studio with Apple M1 Max. All my Notes are saved in my computer. I tried searching for the file and it appears in the list but when I clicked it, it just opens the empty Notes. I am thinking of reinstalling the app. How do I do it?


Mac Studio, macOS 13.0

Very much agree with the advise from @ steve626


As the user wrote " All my Notes are saved in my computer "


Then use your trusty Time Machine Backup  to restore the missing notes in the Notes Application


The Operating System resides in a Sealed and Read Only Volume that can not be opened by the User.


So the idea of Reinstalling the Notes Application only would be impossible
