AUTOCORRECT-ONENOTE: FOR GODS SAKE PROVIDE AN OPTION TO TURN IT OFF!!

Anonymous

Why, why was OneNote released without an option to turn autocorrect off?! This problem is now old enough, how was this not fixed? You essentially made OneNote completely useless, since it auto-"corrects" everything you want to type into something wrong. Why was this option removed from the new Versions of OneNote? How does it come that its not fixed by now?

To sum it up:

This actually solves the problem with a (little annoying) workaround!

Load Office 2016 -> go to Auto Correction exceptions -> delete all the exceptions one by one (watch some youtube meanwhile this could take 5 minutes) -> then get the file to where Bernd P. says

OneNote 2010 now isnt autocorr anymore!

NICE but still - shame on Microsoft........

Could you share the file? I don't have OneNote 2016 anymore. Now I wish I stuck with it instead
