Favorite link breaks when page is moved to another notebook

    I just had the same dialog pop up today. In my case I had moved the page that the favorite linked to a new notebook.

I had to recreate the link. Is there a refresh for favorites? I know that OneNote has two types of links and that one of them will keep itself up-to-date. Maybe OneMore favorites could actually be stored on a hidden OneNote page so that OneNote would update links. (This is an idea that I have been thinking about for a while, not just for Favorites, but for storing macro settings, etc.)

Favorites should continue working when pages are moved between sections and even notebooks.

Seems to work regardless of whether notebooks are local or on OneDrive.

The only way I've been able to force an exception is by closing the notebook that contains the page, which makes sense (although I could catch that and show a prettier error message)

Closing for now
