Starting ON With Win-N

[David Friedland]

Since SP1 is a pre-release, this may be too much of a nit, but I'm having a couple problems with starting up

The first is that the ON icon doesn't appear in the lower right corner area. The installation notes mentioned this problem, but even when I clear the checkbox in the Tools->Options->Other area and then set it again it and hit "OK", it doesn't appear

More significantly, I used to start up ON by pressing the Sindows key and 'N' together. That doesn't work anymore. I hope that feature wasn't dropped!

The feature is still there but you need to add it back in It's a
known bug with the SP1 preview.

Ben Schorr posted this in another thread on how to fix this:
::begin cut and paste::
Close OneNote. Copy and paste this text into a clean Notepad window and
save it to your desktop as "Trayfix.reg"
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\11.0\OneNote]

"FirstBoot"= -

Then double-click that Trayfix.reg file to add it to the registry. That
should fix it.

::end cut and paste::

Windows Key + N still works, but you have to have ON running on the tray
for it to work. The disappearance from the tray is a known issue, the
solution is detailed in my FAQ (see signature block).
