ONENOTE.EXE issue

[bravedan]

Not sure if this is Windows 10 or MS Office or some combination issue.

Since a Windows update followed by an Office update 25/1/21 I'm getting:-

ONENOTEM.EXE Application Error, Unable to start correctly 0xc0000142

I did not realise full the significance of thie until a few days later I tried to use MS Word and MS Excel. These go straight to an Updating screen, then after a delay with the accessing swirling dots, end as above but with their exe name, eg WINWORD.EXE, Unable to start, etc.

Help please.

Please read the response dated 12/14 in this thread: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/msoffice/forum/all/the-application-was-unable-to-start-correctly/8f320d46-4bb2-4caf-980e-d75a81657fc6

Does that apply?

Thanks for that.

I had searched here and elsewhere but had not hit the right wording combination to get that to appear. Yes, I followed the head post information.

I'm always very wary of reloading MS product, too much experience of screwed up account/validation/etc on their part.  Yes, this forced full account validation, complicated by having two versions to the same EMail, but at least this time it did work.

Glad it's sorted out. Thanks for letting us know.
