How to delete a notebook in Microsoft OneNote
However, there will be no option that will allow you to permanently delete a notebook in the app, but instead, you will need to locate and delete the source file (a local file on Windows 10 or in OneDrive). Here's how to do it.
Close and delete a notebook in Microsoft OneNote
There is an important difference that you need to keep in mind between closing and deleting a notebook in OneNote. When you close a notebook, the contents of the notebook are not permanently deleted. Instead, the application will simply remove this content from the list of available notebooks. Basically, the data in the notebook can still be accessed from the source file.
To permanently delete content from Microsoft OneNote, you need to locate and delete the source file of the notebook. Where are the source files stored? The answer obviously depends on where you choose to save it, but this can also sometimes depend on the operating system you're using (by default).
How to delete a OneNote notebook in OneDrive

Here you will see a folder called "Documents", click on it.
Next, click on the 'OneNote Notebooks' folder.
Right click on the notebook you want to delete and then select the 'Delete' option.
This notebook has now been completely removed from OneDrive.
