I have been using OneNote for years, all of a sudden when I opened it up today, the Search bar has moved from its correct place on top of the pages list on the side, to now being in the upper right corner of the actual notes main page.
When I type in a search, the list of pages where the search term shows up now covers up half of the notes field, meaning you can't read half of the page to see if the search result is actually what you are looking for or not, making the entire search function pretty much useless.
How can I move the search box, and more importantly, the list of pages that contain the search result, so that it no longer covers up the actual notes page that I need to read?

Agree with the comments. Move the search bar back please. New search bar location is terrible. Use OneNote every day and the new layout is really annoying. Thanks
This simply does not work - do better!
Hello
I do not like this change.
It is unnecessary. It worked fine just where it was before.
Please FIX IT.
This is getting really annoying!
As a septuagenarian, by the time I have found the search bar each time I need it, I have forgotten what I was going to search for :( .
