This change only affects OneNote for Microsoft 365 on devices running Windows. For more information, see OneNote will block embedded files that have dangerous extensions.

27th annual Statewide IT Conference
This year’s conference begins with preconference activities on April 11. On April 12 and 13 there will be keynote talks, breakout sessions, and networking opportunities. See the program for details. This year’s conference is offered virtually and in person, but it is not a true hybrid event. All sessions—unless they are designated “in person only”—will be live streamed and recorded, allowing for limited participation from online attendees. Registration required.
