What's Changed
A Better Text Search
The Search dialog now has full-text searching, capable of searching parts of words, complex matching statements using AND, OR, NOT, parentheses and quotes. You can move or copy selected pages to different sections. This is a non-indexed search, meaning it is a sequential search of pages within the selected scope, so it may be slow, but it is vastly better at searching than the built-in OneNote search. This dialog is now bound to Shift+Alt+G by default. #2059
New Installer
The newly designed installer is based on a modern WiX architecture that addresses many of the concerns around different architectures. This will enable future capabilities such as chocolatey and winget releases. #2042 addresses installation issues #1949, #1966, #1994, #1995. The individual .msi kits are also 50% smaller than before!
Note that your current installation may still have difficulty auto-updating or installing from the About box Update link. You'll need to download the installer and run it manually.
Click-to-Run Breaks Integrated Updates
Office installations with click-to-run enabled (C2R) are quite aggressive in their oversight of Office apps like OneNote. C2R can disrupt the auto-installer and About box Update link. So with v7.0.0, if you attempt to update to future versions through the About box Update link, you will see a message that instructs you to instead download the next installer and run it manually. If you have enabled "Check for updates" in the settings, that will fail quietly. Unfortunately, there is no reasonable workaround at this time other than updating manually.
Anonymous Telemetry Opt-in
Please consider enabling anonymous telemetry to help us improve OneMore. Telemetry records which commands are used, basic environment details, and a session‑only ID that resets each time OneNote restarts. This information helps us understand which features matter most and how the add‑in is used. No personal or identifying data is ever collected—only fully anonymous usage events. You can enable or disable telemetry at any time from the OneMore Settings dialog. Thank you!

Which Installer?
The bit architecture of the installer must match the architecture of your installed copy of OneNote. This is unrelated to your installed copy of Windows. If you do not know which version of OneNote you have, refer to Which Version of Office Do I Have? on the How to Install OneNote page.
- If you have 64-bit OneNote installed, download the x64 installer
- If you have 32-bit OneNote installed, download the x86 installer
- If you have Arm64 OneNote installed, download the ARM64 installer
