Have you restored a OneNote notebook? I am not challenging you, but I have looked in to this multiple times. I see some people saying it is possible, but I have not found anyone that claims to have successfully done it. According to the quote below, it is not possible.

About the Time Machine feature, as the notebook isn’t stored on Mac, Time Machine only backup the OneNote cache, it is in fact a copy of all opened notebooks but in a special binary and fragmented format for sync purposes only. It’s not usable as a backup because you can’t restore any information from it.

Over the Christmas holiday I may find the time to make a notebook and try it.
Thanks for the input.
