Windows 10: OneNote deleted section with password recovery

Hello,


Is there any way where I can recover my lost password-protected OneNote section? I tried going into the deleted note bin but couldn't find it there. I don't think that it is permanently deleted as it did not reach the 2 month period yet. I was able to recover another password-protected section there.


I deleted those two sections on the same day hence if the section is permanently deleted, I wouldn't have been able to see or recover the other one.


Does anybody know where I can find the missing section and how I should proceed with this issue?


Thank you.

:)

OneNote for Windows 10. Can't find misplaced folders section

Hi Merlin,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community forums.



Misplaced sections appear in a notebook when OneNote tries to sync changes to a notebook section, but can't find the section file. Misplaced sections will stay in the shared notebook until OneNote finds the new location of the section,
or until you or someone else moves or deletes the misplaced section.



If you haven’t deleted or moved, I suggest you to try the notes recovery methods you’ve missed out on, suggested in the article
Find my lost notes, and check
if it helps.



Regards,
