this fixed it for me:

you just remove the onenote metro app completely with this powershell command:

Get-AppxPackage *onenote* | Remove-AppxPackage

and add one info to the registry:

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\onenote-cmd\shell\open\command

@="C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office 15\root\office15\onenote.exe".

Dear t_mae and All

Frankly - after I got everything working as per cust_'s advice - I quietly reverted back to my little AutoHotkey script (not as elaborate as the one from Lee) but I find it now much smoother for me that the original Microsoft solution...)

1 click = Onenote 2016 as always for taking notes when on the phone

2 clicks = Microsoft's snipping tool (with overlay screen selection activated) - which for me works perfect to annotate the 3D CAD files from our designers and just (without saving anything) copying them back into my answer mails (CAD screenshots and ink comments/corrections all included)

=================

#NoEnv ; Recommended for performance and compatibility with future AutoHotkey releases.

; #Warn ; Enable warnings to assist with detecting common errors.

SendMode Input ; Recommended for new scripts due to its superior speed and reliability.

SetWorkingDir %A_ScriptDir% ; Ensures a consistent starting directory.

#F20:: run, onenote.exe

#F19::

run, snippingtool.exe

sleep 300

#IfWinActive ahk_class Microsoft-Windows-Tablet-SnipperToolbar

Send !n

Send r

return

#IfWinActive

=================

Thank you everybody and good luck - that Microsoft will fix this one day for good - and maybe even come up with a much more upgraded version of Surface Pen button customization...???

Hey Guys,

so far so good...

Have you tested, if i wake up the tablet with the purple button it starts this f... onenote-cloud app again. then you have to do the whole procedure again plus manually setting the onenote-desktop-app as default.

any ideas how to completely getting rid of the cloud app?

cheers....
