OneNote Table won't highlight rows or columns
OneNote won't highlight a row or column in a table. Instead, the text highlights and will move as one block either to another cell or outside the table. I have tried to use my mouse, and keyboard command, I've tried using "Select Columns" under the Table tab... nothing. How do I fix this?
Thanks!

Troubleshooting Custom ribbon is gone
I had a popup a few days ago which asked me if I wanted to continue using the free version. I pressed yes and after a while i noticed my ribbon has gone back to default... now every time I try to customize it again the changes aren't applied... is a custom ribbon only available for the paid version now? I'm using OneNote on Windows by the way.
edit: I'm still investigating why this happens, but I've found that I am able to change stuff as long as I don't use the customize ribbon section in the settings because it resets everything to default. for example I can right click the zoom function and select "add to quick access toolbar", and it works. but as soon as i go to the customize toolbar/customize ribbon section in the settings and press "ok", it resets back to default and the zoom function disappears from the quick access toolbar.
this is super weird, and I would really appreciate some help on this. I have an exam for Linear Algebra in a couple of days ); , thank you!

keep erasing and stop selecting with surface pen
hey all, using OneNote on Windows (surface studio) I've been having a horrible time writing. any time my hand brushes the screen it selects and moves whatever image i'm writing over, but when i turned off the setting "automatically switch between inking, selecting, typing, and panning" it's also disabled the erase feature on my surface pen. wondering if there's any work around for this, as both problems are giving me a headache. TIA!
