You need OneNote 2013, not 2010.

Sorry, no.

Hello
I'm getting the same error (see below), but am using OneNote 2013 (Windows 7), file in "office15\onenote.exe"

Please note that I'm using onenote for windows running under parallels on a mac.

Thanks!

The error code 0x80042006 means "the file does not exist".

if you're using the free version of Onenote, you must have at least one notebook, and that notebook must have the "unfiled notes" section somewhere.

Hello,
Thanks.  Fixed it.
The issue was that after uploading all my notebooks to SkyDrive, I changed the name of my local "OneNote Notebooks" folder.  I then saw that OneNote still looked to this folder by default. So I changed the folder name back to the original.  Now your software works!  (But with another issue -- see other thread).  Thanks!

I get the same error using Windows 8.1 Pro (and the free version of OneNote that comes with it).
