If you still want to hang on to the legacy app, you can continue to do so and enjoy some of its features such as the one that provides the ability to store notebooks on the local hard drive instead of the cloud.
Transitioning from OneNote 2016 to OneNote for Windows 10 is not that easy
If you’re using local notebooks and want to transition from OneNote 2016 to OneNote for Windows 10, it’s best to learn a thing or two about the whole process because it’s not the easiest one. OneNote for Windows 10 only supports notebooks stored on OneDrive, SharePoint or OneDrive for Business. You can’t use it to open local notebooks. But, what you can do instead is another thing as OneNote for Windows 10 will be able to move local notebooks to OneDrive on your behalf.
How to move OneNote from your computer to OneDrive
You can move a locally stored OneNote notebook straight in OneDrive from the OneNote for Windows 10 app. You will find the necessary steps to do this on Microsoft’s support page, and you’ll also find out more about the benefits of keeping your notebooks on OneDrive. After you’re done, your local OneNote notebooks will be uploaded to your OneDrive account, and the transition process will be complete. Microsoft is also working on increasing the sync engine’s speed and its reliability as well on OneNote for Windows 10. RELATED STORIES TO CHECK OUT:
