I am not sure why this has become such a hot button issue. I am sorry that my comments have made it worse.
I added the remove instructions at the top f the thread because I thought it would help people. It was done directly from my uninstalling it for a test. Let me repeat the basics of that instruction, since a piece of it seems to have gotten lost:
From Start --> Control Panel --> Programs and Features, find your version of Office in the list of programs. Click the "Change" link at the top of the list. Wait for Office to do the set up. On the list of options, select "Add or Remove Features". Click Continue. Select OneNote from the list. RIght click it and select "Not Availalbe", then click continue again. Your computer will buzz for a while.... When done, OneNote should be removed from your computer.
Please be sure that you have another printer available to that machine so that you get a new default printer once Send to OneNote is gone.
As for the other question: No - OneNote doesn't slow down my machine. I usually have at least one instance of it up and I don't see any slow down at all. In fact, installing it and getting it set up only takes a minute or two on my machines. I would love to know more about what is on your machines that is causing the slow down.
Some of us do care about OneNote problems. Just because I can't live without it doesn't mean you should use it. I am sorry for the problems this thread has caused.
Again..I paid for a dell computer with your software and i cannot print two pictures at 10pm....after being forced to click thru ONE NOTE...I still cannot print
Can your company design the way out of a paper bag?
Yup - I hate it too and can't get rid of the bugger
It's become such a "hot-button" issue because one is not given warning before it's installed and because it's an incredible pain to remove.
If MS really cared about customer relations, you'd send a patch that can be voluntarily installed to remove it.
Y'all are dense.
From Edmond Gantney:
To uninstall One Note in MS office 2007 Student is to uninstall the software completely, MS OFFICE Version you have, and then RE-INSTALL it by op-out it. USE the custom button after you key in your CD KEY and seclect out which parts you do not want and RUN from your Computer what you do want. YOU WILL NOT lose your customizations, as they will automatically filed as a template. and only the programs will be removed. It will take about 30 minutes to uninstall and re install MS Office 2007 RIGHT! NO restarts required!
I rather use MS Office 2000 Professional instead! It also can be selected to do what MS OFFICE whatever and more. I have a choice of 1803 Default Fonts besides Calbri or plain text as MS Word 2000 Pro can compose your email with all of your DO-DADs and customizations and keep it in the .DOC dormat when you save it on YOUR PC and not on the Server. MS Office 2000 Pro and select which Assistant you want... I like the Genius, depending upon which PC you use not its OS. It is on my Compaq CQ62 Laptop with Windows 7 and I have no issues with it! If it does not work properly to your PC with Windows 7. select the program's compatibility mode and select Windows XP SP2 or SP3 and Windows 7 then will work for you!
If you have Windows XP, MS Office 2000 Pro is made for it. I can have the same Office assistant instead old dumb Rover Instead, YOU have toopen or run MS Word or Excel first as to get it recognized with Windows XP!
