OneNote and Windows 11

Posted Summer 2023

This YouTube video explains the history of OneNote, why there are so many different versions, and what Microsoft plans to do moving forward.  

What it means for CMCSS:

OneNote for Windows 10 is going away as Microsoft programmers combine the features of the app and the various other versions into one.  As teacher and student devices are updated to Windows 11, they will only see OneNote as a program instead of multiple options.
