Originally posted by Microsoft Oct 14, 2025 Uncategorized 0 Comments

The “Refresh all on page” button in OneNote’s Meeting Details pane will be retired between November 15 and December 15, 2025. Users can update meeting info by selecting the meeting again from the right pane. No admin action is needed; notify users and update documentation accordingly.

Introduction

To streamline the user experience and reduce redundancy, we are retiring the Refresh all on page button from the Meeting Details pane in OneNote for Windows. Users will still be able to insert updated meeting information by selecting the meeting again from the right pane. This change aligns with our efforts to simplify the interface and reduce confusion around meeting updates.

When this will happen:

We will begin retiring the Refresh all on page button starting November 15, 2025, and expect to complete the rollout by December 15, 2025.
