Before proceeding, remember that deleting a notebook is a permanent action and it can’t be undone. Make sure you’ve copied or backed up any valuable information before removing it.
Step 1: Open OneNote
Launch OneNote on your computer. Go to the ‘Notebooks’ pane and locate the notebook you want to delete.
Step 2: Navigate to Notebook on OneDrive
OneNote notebooks are stored in the OneDrive Cloud. To remove a notebook, you must do so via OneDrive. Click on the ‘Open in OneDrive’ button to access your online storage.
Step 3: Delete the Notebook
In the OneDrive folder, locate your OneNote notebook. Right-click on the notebook and select ‘Delete’ from the pop-up menu.
Step 4: Confirm the Deletion
OneDrive will ask you to verify your decision. Confirm the deletion to proceed.
Note: The notebook will be moved to the OneDrive Recycle Bin, where it remains for 30 days before permanent removal. During this time, you can restore the notebook if you wish.
