Locked Question. This question was migrated from the Microsoft Support Community. You can vote on whether it's helpful, but you can't add comments or replies or follow the question.
I am not sure why this has become such a hot button issue. I am sorry that my comments have made it worse.
I added the remove instructions at the top f the thread because I thought it would help people. It was done directly from my uninstalling it for a test. Let me repeat the basics of that instruction, since a piece of it seems to have gotten lost:
From Start --> Control Panel --> Programs and Features, find your version of Office in the list of programs. Click the "Change" link at the top of the list. Wait for Office to do the set up. On the list of options, select "Add or Remove Features". Click Continue. Select OneNote from the list. RIght click it and select "Not Availalbe", then click continue again. Your computer will buzz for a while.... When done, OneNote should be removed from your computer.
Please be sure that you have another printer available to that machine so that you get a new default printer once Send to OneNote is gone.
As for the other question: No - OneNote doesn't slow down my machine. I usually have at least one instance of it up and I don't see any slow down at all. In fact, installing it and getting it set up only takes a minute or two on my machines. I would love to know more about what is on your machines that is causing the slow down.
Some of us do care about OneNote problems. Just because I can't live without it doesn't mean you should use it. I am sorry for the problems this thread has caused.
I have Office 2007 and OneNote slows my PC down not to mention it automatically loads when you start Windows, if you want to get rid of it go to Uninstall Programs and click on Office/Change/Add or remove features. Select the OneNote tab and click on it, select Not Available and exit.
Go to Control Panel/Devices and Printers and right-click on your printer and select it as the default printer.
Onenote causes nothing but trouble. It intervenes whenever I try to print a receipt from an eCommerce site. I just went througn an Office 2010 "remove features" exercise. Good riddance!
I tried that link to uninstall one note and it didn't work. This is the reason I want to uninstall it.
I send repair orders out at work and my boss wanted me to find a different way to send the pictures so I opened one note and tried to save the picture this way. Big mistake. Now every single one of my folders(which is about 1000) has a copy of this one note book. Please help, I don't want to uninstall the entire Microsoft Office. I have been going through them all and deleting one by one. Help!!!!
Thank you, thank, thank you! Still had some issues with Library popups wanting to save everything to OneNote files, and a printer issue, even after uninstalling, but those are now resolved as well. Thaks again.
