Issues with OneNote crashing
I have multiple computers running OneNote that are having issues. Most are Win 7 Pro computers. Users are either on Office 2010 H&B or Office 2016 H&B. Users documents (my doc, desktop, etc) are redirected folders on the fileserver. It's a virtual server running WIndows Server 2016 Standard
The majority of the OneNote folders are stored on the fileserver in the shared drive. 1 or 2 users have notebooks that are shared from OneDrive.
1. Cache file has stolen all free space. The OneNote cache folder has grown to 40+ GB multiple times in a week. I've had to delete the folder and restart the computer. This happened a few times on 2-3 computers, but seems to have stopped.
2. Takes long to open up. It takes 30 min for OneNote to open up for some users. It's hit of miss if that happens.
3. Unstable. OneNote is constantly freezing and having to restart on its own. When it restarts, I've tried all the options. First time is just to restart. 2nd time is to delete the cache. 3rd time is to reset/delete settings. I'd have to connect all OneNote books again.
This is the main issue. I used to be connected to 5-6 workbooks and leave it open. I deleted all the settings and added all the books back. I've had to do "delete all files and settings" again and added only 1 or 2 books back. It would lockup and have to restart when it's just sitting there. I'd delete the "files and settings" again and not connect any books. I'd leave OneNote open - no workbooks or anything open and it would lock up and have to restart.
I'm personally on Win 7 with Office 2016.
I've tried to "change" office in Add/Remove programs and did the "quick repair". I'm still having this issue.
I'm trying to avoid have to do the full repair or a uninstall / reinstall because a few things are a pain to resetup.
Has anyone else been experiencing anything like this? Have you been able to fix it?
