Default Save/Backup/Default location

I'm using OneNote 2013 on a Windows 7 64bit box.

I use OneNote and have two (2) separate notebooks, one for each of the projects I'm associated with. When I created the notebooks, I specified their locations (in a particular location which is automatically backed up to OneDrive). When I look at the properties for either of those notebooks, the Location is shown as that location I specified.

However, when I go to those two locations, in one of the directories there is a single .ms-one-stub file; in the other directory there is nothing at all.

Meanwhile, when I go the 'Save & Backup' options, it shows:

Quote:
Quick Notes Section: c:\users\me\Documents\OneNote Notebooks\My Notebook\Quick Notes.one
Backup Folder: c:\users\me\AppData\Local\Microsoft\OneNote
Default Notebook Location: c:\users\me\Documents\OneNote Notebooks
When I go to c:\users\me\Documents\OneNote Notebooks\My Notebook, there is a folder there named for one (and only one) of my two notebooks, and in that folder is the file New Section 1.one and Open Notebook.onetoc2.

I'm obviously not understanding how/where OneNote saves its data. How do I get it to actually save in the location I specify, and get the stuff out of c:\user\me\Documents\OneNote Notebooks?

Thanks for any help.
