I figured out why Onenote links are 'fixed' - its because of the weirdness of the links I mentioned in post 869.

Onenote's Copy Link to Page tool puts something like this into the clipboard, which I paste into the column in <a ref> tags:

Code:

onenote:https://d.docs.live.net/cc6283b11474a776/Documents/BetterRed's%20Notebook/blah-blah-blah&end

The presence of https: throws it to the https override handler, which is of course… Edge. It was working before because I had an override handler for http. It now works if I change it to:

Code:

onenote:http://d.docs.live.net/cc6283b11474a776/Documents/BetterRed's%20Notebook/blah-blah-blah&end

Which means I can't have an override for http protocol links; that should be okay though… the web links I put into columns I'd look at with NV are copied pasted from a handful of 'well behaved' sites. And, I have to edit what Onenote puts in the clipboard before creating the link in the LT column so removing the 's' is no big deal.

But, I wouldn't object if something could be done to avoid having to do that.

Ideally of course MS would provide two Copy Link tools, one for the desktop Onenote, the other for the browser Onenote.
