OneNote vs. OneNote for Windows 10
I received an email this morning reminding me of the impending end of support for the OneNote for Windows 10 app. As I do periodically when I am reminded about this, I launched the OneNote on Windows (OneNote M365) app and lamented how much less user friendly it is than its doomed cousin. The lack of a "Recent Notes" view is my biggest gripe, but the awkward "pop-over" search comes a close second. The tabs and search result are on an ugly grey background and everything is just slightly too small to read comfortably. Am I the only one?
SharePoint links stop working for external Users
SharePoint Shared Document or Directory links stop working for external Users. Happens with several internal team members sharing links with external users. There are no expirations on the links and all settings appears to be set correctly. The links will initially work fine for users, but they seem to stop within 24 hrs. Sometimes they will start working a day later. And it doesn't matter what folder or file is shared. No one seems to be able to figure out what could be going on with this. This has been consistently happening over the last few months. Microsoft Support has not found an answer either. Has anyone seen this before? Any suggestions? We are pulling out hair out on this one.

Hi all, We are assessing the usage of Sway for internal project and change communications, and have a concern that those with access to Sway could create content which does not follow internal approved designs and patterns. Are there mechanisms in place to allow us to control which templates the content creator could use as a baseline for their content, whether that involves access to explicitly approved templates only (workflows for approvals??), or restricting access to marketplace or generally available content? TIA Geoff
24 hour format - Onedrive
Good afternoon. My time format in OneDrive, on the regional site is 24 hours. But the file history or file change history in OneDrive is shown in 12 hours. An example If I make a change to a file at 14:00, OneDrive shows 02:00 Here in Spain we use 24 hours as the preferred format and for our company with more than 100 employees it is important to control this well. Can you help me? Regards, Thank you
Outlook address book sort order, PhoneticDisplayName
You cannot enter PhoneticDisplayName in AdminCenter. - I would like to be able to enter the user's PhoneticDisplayName in the AdminCenter. - I would like the address book to be sorted in PhoneticDisplayName order. Isn't it possible to change the sort order by pressing the item title? Name, E-mail, Mobile No, PhoneticDisplayNameSearching in a Microsoft List
How could a user restrict their search to a particular value in a particular field? Let's say I need to search for the value 'Williams' in the 'Company' field. I could enter "Williams" into the search bar, but the hits would include all items that contain the word "Williams" in any field. I want to restrict the search. How can one do that?New Outlook: Plain Text Until Proven Innocent?
I used to turn off Rich Format emails and just view them plain text in old Outlook; but I have been forced to upgrade to new Outlook and I do not see the option listed anymore. Where has it been moved? Also, is there a way to turn it on network wide? Also, how stupid and irresponsible is it of Microsoft to bury a setting like that when so many people's jobs rely on the computer systems of their livelyhood not being encrypted by malware? It makes me feel like Microsoft is trying to rid the world of additional companies.
Please add Markdown support
Please add support for Markdown editing/rendering. EverNote and Boostnote all support this, but OneNote still lacks this feature, while it remains so many developers' main notetaking tool. Take myself as an example, I enjoy its seamless integration with OneDrive and powerful search function, but find it difficult to properly take down coding related notes -- I was forced to format code snippets into monospaced font with shading to make them look like "code snippets". To elaborate the user story about this idea: The user can create a new "regular page" or a "Markdown page". If the latter, then Markdown tags entered are rendered as you type (e.g. #title, >quote, *bold*, `code`...) The user might also enjoy a "cell editing" mode (similar to Jupyter Notebook). So if the cursor is placed in a cell, then it changes to raw text view. And once escaped from this cell, it gets rendered. And maybe enable some Jupyter/VS Code stype shortcut keys, too (Alt+Up/Down to move the cell, Alt+Shift+Up/Down to duplicate the cell, Ctrl+Shift+K to kill a line, etc) This way notetaking will be more efficient/fun, and many developers would thank MS!
