![]() Neither the Win32 nor the UWP versions have seen significant development in the past few months as Microsoft has struggled to maintain both.Īfter long deliberation, Microsoft has finally decided to abandon the UWP version of OneNote, and combine the best of both app variants to update the existing Win32 version. ![]() That's why there are now two versions of the OneNote app: the original Win32 version just called 'OneNote' and the UWP version using the name 'OneNote for Windows 10'. People who liked UWP and the design of the application were not satisfied with Microsoft's treatment of the Win32 client, and this led the Redmond company to roll back the Win32 version in Office 2019 or 365 again. Not long after that, Microsoft suddenly 'turned the wheel' and started pushing new features to the Win32 client application. Instead, the company just offers a UWP client and adds a few new features. In 2018, when Microsoft really wanted users to switch to the UWP version of OneNote, the company stopped supporting the original, feature-rich version of OneNote with pre-installed Office apps. In fact, OneNote itself has undergone many changes in recent years. This is part of the tech giant's effort to merge the multiple versions of the Windows note-taking application into a single, unified version, with the right design and better support.
