Hi,
today I've opened OneNote at work and the layout changed.
I really need to have the column layout back also for the nodebooks as I switch quickly between different notebooks. (see attached image)
Is there an hidden option or something that I'm missing?
Thanks!

@kos88 I had this 'feature' for a short time too - along with dark mode. But now that has all disappeared. Too bad, I liked dark mode. Not quite sure what is going on.

@kos88, I had your view for about two weeks. Then this morning, the view switched (looks like the OneNote 2016 view). I confirmed Win10 OneNote launched, not OneNote 2016. Hmmm. Settings \ About, does not show a new version.

@Paul Beiler That is the same view that I have. Mine does show a version: 16001.11629.20028.0

@DeletedI have same version but still have the old view. I don't have Navigation Pane under View tab like @Paul Beiler has.

@Marc Laflamme, I am not on an early release for OneNote.
I am on Win10 1903 (Build 18362.116). I am on the TARGETED (early) release for office 365 ProPlus. (But this OneNote comes through Win10 Store, not the ProPlus). I was looking at the Microsoft Store \ … \ Downloads and updates (OneNote shows a modified date of 5/9/2019), and right after that noticed the different look.

@Paul BeilerSo strange, my Store doesn't even show OneNote as being installed anymore.
OneNote App had an Office Insider setting that I previously had enabled but have since disabled.

@Marc Laflamme, I had the view that Kos88 showed in the original post, had it for several weeks. I provided feedback that I preferred seeing the Notebook-file-list. Hmmm. Is Microsoft targeting different views to various groups of IDs?
And in all of this, the OneNote version did not change with the two different views.

What does your OneNote Online view look like? Mine looks the same as App version. But if I log into my personal OneNote account I get the new view.
MS What are you doing?!

@Marc Laflamme, I had to click through the tabs on the left side (owned, installed, ready to install, etc) multiple times before OneNote showed under INSTALLED.

@Marc Laflamme, my online view looks like the attachment in the Kos88 original post.

@Paul Beiler If I uninstall the app and then reinstall I get the updated view and new features. Once I close the app and restart it reverts to the old version......again, same app version. Truly bizarre and very irritating.

I just tried that and it didn't change anything :(
Jun 07 2019 05:57 AM
@Marc Laflamme Oh well....It wasn't much of a fix anyway!

Oh I think I figured it out!
Ellipses top right --> Settings --> Options --> Enable Experimental Features
Restarted app and I have the "classic view" now.
