How do I uninstall OneNote 17.7341.57791.0 Windows 10 version? This was installed from the Store. It is not showing under "Programs and Features" Control Panel, nor is it listed under "Windows Features" and if I right click it under the Start Menu Apps there is no uninstall option.  How do I uninstall it??

    OneNote App (17.xxx) IS pre-installed in Windows 10. You maybe just updated it using the Microsoft store.

    Why would you uninstall it anyway? If you do not want to use it just remove the tile from the start menu and ignore it after that.

    If you insist to remove the app that would be possible with the following powershell command:

    Get-AppxPackage *OneNote* | Remove-AppxPackage

    But there is no guarantee that a future Windows update would not reinstall it. So I would suggest what I said before: Just remove the tile and ignore it.

    If you are used to a desktop version of OneNote like OneNote 2013 or 2016: That one is still there and you can continue to use it. Just look for it in the app list of the start menu.

    FYI, some people install onenote included with office 2016, because if you're using sharepoint at work, you can't really use the free included onenote, and your users easily get confused with issues loading.

    we have had to remove onenote that comes with windows, as all of our machines get office 2016 and require the use of onenote 2016.

    so... you must run this power shell command from an admin elevated prompt.

    Get-AppxPackage *OneNote* | Remove-AppxPackage

    It only takes about 10 seconds to run, but life is so much better once you are able to clean up diskspace that perhaps you need. also, leaving programs on your computer you don't use is just bad practice.. "delete the shortcut and move on" does not answer the question of how do I uninstall this program.

    in the case where the OS requires a program to be able to function.. like... Windows Explorer? yah.. you can say, you can't uninstall it.

    The behavior of Native Windows 10 One Note is significantly different than the earlier versions, I personally wish they would have kept it as a separate application that you have to pay for.  I use it often and have purchased versions from 2007 and 2010 separate Window applications. The newer One Note has predefined parameters that require the user to undo them as opposed to 'selecting them', typical stupid 'let us do the thinking for you' ms mentality-under the auspices of 'we are making it free so don't complain that we preselect everything about it' 

    I love one note just NOT the newer versions-
