I am using OneNote 2013, and have a few network notebooks (not OneDrive) open. However, at some point the network guys moved the server, and now I have an orphaned notebook that will not sync, move, or close. It causes OneNote to take a long time to open. Google keeps telling me to sign into OneDrive, but I do not have OneDrive, nor was this notebook ever attached to a OneDrive account.
So far I have tried
The first two items end up trying to sync the notebook, which of course fails, and then it just sits there. Please help.

RUN "onenote.exe /safeboot"
and delete the cache.
This forces a close of all open notebooks. Then you have to re-open them. This re-builds the cache.

Worked beautifully, thank you.
