People that publish shared notebooks in some environments have a couple of requests which need to be addressed. First, suppose you are an administrator creating a section or some pages in a "New Employee Orientation" notebook which will be shared with all new employees at your company. OneNote keeps track of who modifies information on a page in shared notebooks (right click the "Outline Element" to see on the context menu who last modified it), but in this scenario, it is really irrelevant who typed the information. Wouldn't it be nice to remove that data from the notebook?

People also may want this as an additional level of privacy. I suggest spot checking the results if it is really critical that the personal information is removed.

Another problem is a bit more subtle. If you add a lot of information to a page, focus (technically, the "insertion point," or location of the cursor) is remembered and focus goes to that location when anyone navigates to that page. For our scenario, you would probably want the focus to be at the top of each page by default, but since you probably typed the information at the bottom of the page most recently, focus is left at the bottom. The tedious way to move focus to the top of the page is to manually open each page and click at the top.

Or, you can install the "Notebook Cleaner" powertoy [...] and let it do all this work for you.
