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?

    So I use OneNote for Windows 10 at work (looks like Version 16001.13801.20534.0) and I have encountered this same issue. I try to type POs and it is inevitably changed to Pos, including with the red squiggly underlining. I don't know how to disable autocorrect BUT I did just discover that a quick Ctrl + Z reverts it back to POs as intended. As far as workarounds go, this one is minimally cumbersome, though still less than ideal. Hopefully this helps with whatever you're trying to type as well.
