Phenomenon:
The ability to insert attachments has changed in January 2019 after OneNote for Windows (UWP) update 16001.11231.20118.0.
The original Insert Attachment feature appears as a file icon and file name. (OneNote UWP attachments are read-only, not modified)

Now it's turned into, after the file is inserted, OneNote UWP will upload the file to Onedrive.com, and then place a link and display a preview.
Click on the link and the file in OneDrive.com will be opened with a browser. The files in OneDrive.com are also unable to go into editing state directly from the OneNote UWP.

The attachment feature of the OneNote UWP becomes a full web-based feature.
If you cannot connect to OneDrive.com, you cannot open and read your attachments anymore. (Many countries cannot connect to OneDrive.com)
