Si OneNote permanece abierto cuando la ordenador entra en modo de espera, OneNote crea una entrada en la memoria cache para evitar que el Username pierda datos. Esto puede evitar que OneNote se abra correctamente al salir del modo de suspensión. En particular, OneNote busca las credenciales del usuario de la caché, y no hay ninguna si intentan autenticarse, y si continúa haciendo clic en Entrar contraseña, nunca se conectarán.

Esta es una de las condiciones más molestas en las que se puede hallar su querido OneNote: El famoso error “OneNote necesita una contraseña para sincronizar este bloc de notas”. Aparentemente, este es un obstáculo real. Esto esencialmente hace que su aplicación OneNote be esencialmente inútil y casi me vuelve loco, fundamentalmente desde que me sucedió en mi teléfono con Windows, lo que hace que el escenario sea todavía más complicado.

Make a backup of your data

I realized late what was happening and lost some notes. Nothing happens, but I don't know anything about your case. Note that my solution does not preserve the changes you have made to your device. Copy anything that is out of sync to a temporary text file or Word document.

  • Close OneNote.
  • Press "Start" to start the Start menu.
  • Utilice el comando Ejecutar o el Search Engine.
  • Type "Credential Manager" and press Enter.
  • Select the Windows Identification Information tab.
  • Find all cached users in the list (generally called MicrosoftOffice11_Data: or
  • MicrosoftOffice12_Data :).
  • Click the arrow next to each one and click Delete.
  • Once the caches are cleared, launch OneNote and enter your account password. OneNote should now work regularly and sync with your laptop.

Sign in with your OneNote account again

It turns out that in most cases the 'Onenote needs a password to sync this notebook' will occur due to a generic error that can be easily fixed by logging out and returning to the OneNote app. In most cases, this problem occurs after installing a major Windows 10 update.

But remember that this method should be considered as a workaround and not as the correct answer because it does not solve the underlying problem that caused the error message. At the same time, some users announced that the problem was reported a few days after the initial application of the patch.

Delete account using Credential Manager

Another situation where this problem persists even after the traditional logout is a scenario where Windows Credentials contain corrupted data causing problems with your Microsoft account. In this case, you may have similar problems with Office applications other than OneNote.

If this scenario applies, you can work around this problem by accessing the Credential Manager from the classic control panel interface and removing all generic credentials related to your Microsoft account.
