    Select the text, then go to Format menu > Font command > turn on Effects: Strikethrough or Double Strikethrough check box.

    You can also put a button for the strikethrough command on the toolbar.

    20170515 Win10 Anniv issue updated 20170503: In OneNote, the strike thru command is in the "Basic Text" box of the "Home" tab. It works well to speak a do-list for the weekend, the cross out as items are accomplished.
