I went into outlook and when I tried to get into the notes section, the section on the toolbar had disappeared.

I keep a lot of important information in that section, how do I get it back.

    This happened to me when I began using Office 365. In order to get Notes back, I had to do this:

    To the left of "File" there is a list of shortcuts. If you hover it will say what it is: "Mail", "Calendar", etc. The box with the 4 little boxes inside is the "More Apps". If you click that one you will see "Notes" there. Right-click on it and then "Pin" should show up. Click to pin it. Notes should then appear alongside all the other shortcuts/apps. You can drag it up to bring it above other apps on the list.

    I tried all your suggestions. When I type (Windows-R") outlook.exe /resetnavpane, I get a message: Windows cannot find outlook.exe/resetnavpane. I have uninstalled, rebooted, and re-installed multiple times. Nothing changes. On the same day, I uninstalled and reinstalled Office on two different computers, one with a Xeon chip and one is a Dell notebook. Both installations show my Notes folder correctly. Both show multiple "apps" as options on the bar for apps. The problem computer does not show these apps--only Word, Excel, Powerpoint and OneNote.

    However, the notes folder is present on the problem computer, but it is located as a folder in the InBox. I cannot move it. ? I can see a note, and probably can search for items, but it is nearly impossible to read, this is not a solution.

    What else can I try
