How do I find where OneNote stores files locally?
Recently we changed domains. This has had a negative impact upon my OneNote notebooks, because it's storing the notes locally, rather than on OneDrive. It has affected OneNote for Windows 10, and possibly OneNote. Now, I cannot get to some of the notes I've previously saved. For example, I just tried to go to a link I saved in a note, but I got this error message:
Sorry, opening locally stored section files are not supported. Please upload your notes to OneDrive and then open them from there.
I would gladly do this, only I have no idea where OneNote is storing them locally. And I don't know what they're named. OneNote for Windows 10 doesn't have anything like a File menu, so I don't know how to find out where the files are stored locally. How do I find that out?

Default path is supposed to Documents\OneNote Notebooks, btw, may I know any backup setup for your previous OneNote?
Documents\OneNote Notebooks is the default path for local OneNote notebooks? Huh. Mine is empty. And I've been using this machine for 8 years. Why is it empty?
