MICROSOFT HAS MADE a sharp U-Turn over the future of its OneNote app.
Earlier this year, the company announced that there would be no further updates to the traditional Win32 version of the app – the one last bundled in with Office 2016 -choosing to concentrate instead on the UWP version.
But following a surprise announcement at Microsoft Ignite, OneNote is back, back, back – and not just as a legacy product.
The newly updated version back-ports all the code written since it was sidelined to bring the Win32 version up to the same level as the UWP edition. Heck, it even has a Dark Mode, and we know how everyone inexplicably LOVES a dark mode.
The aim is to bring OneNote back to a single codebase and aims to have complete parity over the next 18 months.
