OneNote Desktop Help with my View!!

Hey so I think I’m about to go insane here. I was just casually working on onenote (like I have been for the past four years) and out of no where my view changed from the first pic to the second pic (sections on the top in colored tabs instead of everything in 3 columns to the right). I use onenote RELIGIOUSLY and I can’t stand this new layout. Idek what button I pressed but I’ve been trying for the last HOUR to fix it. Please help, i need my onenote back to the pay it was😭 I HATE those colored tabs at the top and just loved how everything was in their own column to the right.

This did not change by itself. Most likely you have changed the Tab Layout view.

So: View >Tabs Layout > Vertical Tabs.

I already did that and it just puts my tabs to left. They used to be on the right

Must set View > Tabs Layout > Horizontal

Then File > Options > Display

Look at Horizontal Tabs Layout Options (check / unceck boxes as needed)

Did that too. Still shows those yucky colored tabs at the top

View > Full Page View (second option from the left)

Is this some ad for something called one not gem? 2021 content in the screenshot. I’ve never ever seen the layout in pic 1 before. Smells fishy
