Launch Onenote UWP using Autohotkey

Question

I'm trying to launch onenote UWP from autohotkey but cannot pin down the specific exe file to launch. I ran the onenote uwp and found the name as Microsoft.Office.OneNote_17.7466.57691.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe and the location is C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\Microsoft.Office.OneNote_17.7466.57691.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe. But using the following code, I opened the onenote 2016

#o::

run "C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\Microsoft.Office.OneNote_17.7466.57691.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe"

return

Can anyone help me with this?

Thanks a lot!

If you have configured OneNote UWP to be your default app when clicking the onenote-cmd:// magnet link, you can write your AutoHotKey script to run this magnet link.

1. Configure OneNote UWP as your default app for opening a OneNote magnet link:

2. Open OneNote UWP with Windows+O:

#o::
Run, onenote-cmd://
return

3. Open a OneNote UWP Quick Note with Windows+N

#n::
Run, onenote-cmd://quicknote?onOpen=typing
