Change backup location or permissions Kevin Buchs 2/12/2007 4:32:00 PM I just realized, from another posting, that backup for ON 2007 is stored under Documents and Settings. I have a particular notebook I am using to document work on documents which have a limited distribution to a group of people. Those documents are stored in a location where Windows ACLs protect the files and I have also created my ON notebook there. Now I recognize that my ON notes are exposed under Documents and Settings. Even better than going an changing the permissions in the ON backup directory, I'd like to store the backup in a location where the notebook is stored. Can I change this? Alternatively, is there a way the notebook backup can inherit the permissions that the notebook has?

One thing to note, if you use a hardened password on the OneNote file it is protected by true >128bit triple des encryption, not the easily bypassed mechanism as the rest of office uses. So exposed might not be the exact words for protected material, outside possibly of notebook names and structure... Of course, if you forget your password... But yes the backup location is changeable under options. The bad news is that I fairly certain that all notebooks default to the same backup location, so if you wanted some on a network drive and others in another location it might not work so well in your case.
