As of October 14, 2025, OneNote for Windows 10 has officially reached End of Support (EOS).
The app will now transition into a read-only mode, meaning you can continue to open and view your existing notes, but creating, editing, or syncing content is no longer supported.
What this means for you
-
You can still view and export your notes. The app remains available for read-only access, allowing you to review and copy information from your existing notebooks.
-
Editing and syncing are no longer supported, however any unsynced changes will be automatically backed up and accessible on OneNote for Windows. More details here.
-
To continue creating, editing, and syncing notes, use the OneNote app on Windows, which now offers the latest design, performance improvements, and consistent navigation across devices.
