how to uninstall OneNote

Hi DwayneClutter ,

     If you followed Microsoft's updates that closely, they lead you up a creek without a paddle in favor you spending all of your money for useless software not everyone needs. It is up to the user to decide to update or not, ("To BE or Not To BE that is the question?... Hamlet") as also to use or not to use all what is given, as in MS Office 2007 student or later, as I have. I choose NOT to use it altogether. If I need to use it, it leaves out the "Outlook" part to have your part in an email address as its contents are on your PC safe from being on line, and Microsoft wants you to go on line to use their web page to do it. SO, if you use any use any part of MS Office Student 20xx’s also to use or not to use all what is given, as in MS Office 2007 student or later, as I have. I choose NOT to use it altogether. If I need to use it, it leaves out the "Outlook" part to have your part in an email address as its contents are on your PC safe from being on line, and Microsoft wants you to go on line to use their webpage to do it. SO, if you use any use any part of MS Office Student 20xx, is at your own risk! YOU do have the right of refusal to say "NO" to anyone and that is your choice in accepting or not accepting the very poor rendition of MS OFFICE 2000 Professional. as MS Office Student 200xx is last rated at one trillionth below zero! I need three or so means to get my email as checks and balances. If one works, the other does. Then eventually I get them all working.

In an related issue, ONENOTE leaves a cookie crumb trail a empty file at a tune of 4096 bytes in every folder on every partition for naught, hence it makes your PC run slower the more you use OneNote. AS hence, it is a virus and it should be eliminated for good. It is like a slow leak in your dinghy and eventually it will sink, (Crash the PC). It may seem foolish to a lot of you users to use the older versions of the software, Like MS OFFICE 2000 Pro, as it was given to me FREE, and I do know how to adapt it to work with Windows Vista and '7 and that IS my expertise. When I need to install it, I do not need to type in the stupid 25-digit CD Key every time from the keyboard or go on line to register it, I copy and paste the CD key in sections to it from a stored text file. and I do not NEED the actual CD either to install it, I can run it off any HDD, where I have it stored. I am thrilled that I am not the only one who absolutely hates OneNote.

     By the way, I had to reinstall Windows XP Pro back in one of my PCs and it worked without activating it, because I got Windows XP Pro DVD from its sister PC and both work with the same CD KEY! Reason being I had to get a clean install of Windows XP, was a lot of software that was also installed was interfering with Windows also cluttering up drive Letter C on a lowly 64 GB SSD (Solid State Drive). It crashed because it was overheating, so I took out the SSD for a Seagate 80 GB SATA II hard disk drive. I thought it was the power supply, but it wasn't. I also found the drivers stored as a compressed file as to the video, sound, and network communications and the Intel chipset and made my own CD of them. I did not need to go that far and instead I also restored them all from where I had them off the HDD! What I had to do was get the updates and I already had the IE8 installer program. I was ready for it, and it went well. 

     What good is the software when the hardware wont work properly? Something a lot of you users tend to forget. The hardware goes out of date but not the software I have. IT never changes! A lot of hardware needs the right drivers to work... but if the PCIe card blows a gasket (electronic component), I took out the PCIe  card, (hardware) for a new one that works better. I change it by the hour if need be as to swap external HDDs and not Flash drives or media cards, as my updates, because I never know when the PC blows its hardware like the 566i e Machines I had. My brother had it for six years then he gave it to me and it lasted six more until it blew out the secondary IDE channel chip! 

     I never know what is new still works with the old UNTIL I try it! THAT is why my version of Windows XP Pro and 7 is better than Microsoft's and everyone else's. That is because Microsoft purposely deletes out the good for what is idiocy NEW that wont work properly! And Windows 8 is a sham just like OneNote! A former friend of mine asked me eight years ago: “Why are you working on your old Computers?” My reply:

“Because I got it for free and it is a challenge, as I already have the new PC and there is NO challenge for me because it is already working!”

I HATE IT ALSO...

Hi EricTietjen,

Yeah, who is the Administrator of YOUR PC? You can exclude even your so-called girlfriend from adding anything new to you PC, as easy as setting the USER Account Control in Windows 7. With Windows XP, you have to use XP Pro and have your OWN password YOU keep it to yourself... And have your girlfriend sign on as a GUEST and as a limited account. WHO does the PC belong to? IF she adds MS Office 2007, 2010, or 2013, She is not aware you can exclude Onenote from the installation... OR tell her to get her OWN PC so she can put what SHE wants on or in it. They are cheap enough when bought refurbished. I will never use MS Office 2007 Student again for whatever reason or if is free... with Windows 7 Home premium just because of its nonsense it creates, even if someone paid me to use it. I am having some issues in using MS Office 2000 Pro, with Windows 7, but that one out of three PCs having Windows 7 to begin with. That is, the office assistant hangs up in closing whatever subprogram I am using, (Word or Excel), because ITS Office Assistant is never part of the startup procedure to begin with; even if I put its server in the Startup folder I have to put its Server on the taskbar and start or stop it from showing. It varies according to each PC's installation. MS Word 2000 Pro does an excellent job in making any type of labels. Some label templates have to go on line to get and/or see what matches the list MS Word has for them... Avery has its style but Office Max does not. I use File folder labels to label what type of drive is the enclosure it is in as to WHO, what type of drive it is and the size it is. I had to go on line to get Avery's 5202 file folder template and I can print each label independently or as a group, or all the same... Now I use a black Sharpie felt tip pen to mark the aluminum case and it stay on the metal case as long as I want it to be, or erase it by getting a very cheap rug spot remover cleaner and it comes off in a clean cloth wipe-pee like it was not there at all. THAT stuff also removes the label and its glue when it gets wet enough, and Windex is no match to it. (Paper dissolves when it gets wet anyway), but the glue stays put, but as not to scratch the metal surface, use a dry baby wipe that is not oily or smelly.

I have had to uninstall this multiple times. I tried it out and than my girlfriend downloaded it again. My issue is this, I print out between 10-30 labels for my ebay business every day and when onenote is installed it constantly makes me go to onenote every time I print a page, making the process painfully slow.
