Does VxKex solve the problem of now trying to install OneNote 2016 onto Windows 7? The error message upon attempting install is "Entry point not found - The procedure entry point SetProcessMitigationPolicy could not be located in the dynamic link library KERNEL32.dll". This installer was successful up until sometime in 2023. I suspect some Windows 7 update killed this process. Thanks!

I just installed OneNote 2016 yesterday, along with Word, Excel, Powerpoint. They all seem to be working fine for me. I didnt even have to use VxKex to use it.

OneNote in particular, is incredibly stable.

Running Windows 7 64 bit, ALL updates installed except for the crappy telemetry ones.

If you have issues, its either your specific Windows 7 system, or the specific version of OneNote 2016 that you're installing.

I am using the OneNote 2016 that MS made available as a free stand alone. I kept the installer, but MS has since removed access to this download. I have successfully loaded this onto numerous Windows 7 laptops, but the installations started failing sometime in 2023. Is your OneNote 2016 part of the DVD Office Suite? Since this conflict occurs across numerous different installs, I am thinking that this downloaded version is conflicting with some Windows update. I may try purchasing a DVD Office 2106 version if that continues to work.

I myself am running Office 365 v2002 (16.0.12527.22286).

What would be more interesting is the question whether later versions of Office could me made to work on Windows 7.
