1481840 2021-11-04 00:46:00 While travelling (over the past 9 years) in our motorhome we have been keeping a diary on One Note so there are quite a few notes. Some of these notes were on an old PC running XP which we have not accessed for a year or two, but now would like to. Unfortunately these old One Note files cannot be opened on today's One Note, but when I attempted to open them it said that I needed to convert them so I could access them. It directed me to Office.com which I had a look at but could not see anywhere where I could convert these files.

I am hoping that someone will be able to help me find where I can convert them.:help: Thanks so much for your help.:thanks

you need to download & install the 2016 version of OneNote.
Not the cloud version & not the Win10 'app' version


"If you need to install or reinstall the OneNote desktop app (formerly called “OneNote 2016”) "
go.microsoft.com

I havnt tried this , so at your own risk . :-)
