How to reset tags to default in OneNote 2016 (Office 365)












1















Not sure how my tags got customized, maybe from some template that got loaded to our machines or some notebook with explicit custom tags, but I somehow lost the defaults which I actually prefer.



I went and tried to delete preferences.dat as suggested elsewhere for previous versions, but that didn't work.

          I was able to reset the tags by running this registry script to delete the custom tags. Create a text file, copy the below, save as reset-tags.reg and run it to reset tags back to defaults.
