OneNote is not working with Mac OS 10.15.5

I have just migrated to a new MBP running on 10.15.5 and after restoring my backup from my old MBP OneNote is no longer working. I have tried rebooting, uninstalling/reinstalling and nothing worked.

Any similar problems out there? If there are, I would appreciate if you could share your solution.

MacBook Pro 16″, macOS 10.15

Office needs to be at least 2016 patched to work on Catalina, and preferably Office 2019 or Office 365.

for OneNote... Try this:

If that fails and if you’re on a currently-patched version, check with Microsoft Support.

Notes Quitting Unexpectedly iMac 27" late 2014, macOS Big Sur 11.7.2. I always keep my system software and apps updated to the latest revision. Notes is version 4.8.1 (1872). Recently, within the last couple of months, any time I have Notes open at the same time as I'm using Safari or Mail, it will always close suddenly after being open for a few minutes. I do have a large number of notes saved, many with photos embedded, but I've been using Notes in this way for quite a long time (years) without any difficulties. My iMac has plenty of RAM (32 GB) and storage is not full (> 50GB available). Each time it displays the problem report and says that it will be sent to Apple immediately when I reopen Notes. Notes is working fine other than this frequent application crash which does not seem to cause any loss of data. I use Malwarebytes to check my system for Malware and have occasionally had it identify and quarantine malware that it finds, but since this problem with Notes has started occurring I've had a few Malwares identified and removed and it has not made a difference. Any suggestions on what may be causing this and what I could do to troubleshoot or repair the problem?
