Follow these steps in order. If a step changes data, permissions, authentication, or a subscription, record the current state first and keep a recoverable copy or backup method.

1. Open OneNote's notebook sync status and identify the exact notebook or section reporting 0xE0000024.
2. Copy any unsynced page content to a temporary local document before closing or resetting the notebook.
3. Force Sync This Notebook, then sign out and back in only if the cloud notebook opens correctly in OneNote for the web.
