Restoring One Note notebooks

Hello:

We use Onenote in a corporate environment. I recently got a new PC. On my
old machine, all of my notebooks opened automatically when I opened Onenote.

With my new machine, none of my notebooks are listed.

I know that the notebooks that I want are on the network (somewhere), and I
happen to have a .vhd backup file of my old computer that I can mount in
Windows.

Is there a way to restore my notebook list so that I can get back my
previous set of open notebooks in Onenote?

If the Notebooks are stored on the network and you know (or can find) their
location, you will need to open them in OneNote. Either use File | Open
and navigate to the network path or just use explorer to navigate to the
folder containing the Notebook and select "Open as Notebook in OneNote"
from the right-click menu.

You will need to repeat this for all of the Notebooks you want to re-open.
Once you do this step, the Notebooks will remain in your configuration each
time you open OneNote.
