  1. Sticky notes lost after win 10 1803 update


    Hi,


    My machine got updated to Wind 10 1803 version yesterday. After that I was not able to locate sticky notes on my screen. I entered to "Add or remove program" option where I could see sticky note. I clicked on "advanced options".


    There I have found reset button indicating as "If this app isn't working right, reset it. This app will be reinstalled and revert to its default settings. Your documents will not be affected." Screenshot attached. So I reset it. but nothing happened. Finally got microsoft sticky note on store and installed it. But it came completely empty and earlier one all vanished. I lost good amount of data from the notes.


    Hence pls help urgently.

    :)

  2. Win 10 v1709 update and missing Sticky Notes

    Hi,

    There is a possibility that the Sticky Notes were unexpectedly deleted on your desktop due to some errors while the update is being installed. For us to provide an accurate solution, we would need to know which build and edition of Windows 10 is currently
    installed on your PC.

    For initial troubleshooting, we suggest recovering the lost Sticky Notes by following these steps:

    • Open the File Explorer.
    • Type %APPDATA%\Microsoft\Sticky Notes\StickyNotes.snt in the address bar and then hit the Enter key.
    • Look for StickyNotes.snt file and then open it with Notepad or Microsoft Word.
    • Look for the missing notes in .snt file, copy and paste it into a new Sticky Notes.

    To avoid issues with missing Sticky Notes, it will be best to back them up. You can follow the steps provided by
    Jennifer Bri in this thread. It serves as a guide on how to back up and restore
    Sticky notes in Windows 10.

    We'll be waiting for your reply.

    Lost sticky notes after upgrade to Windows 10

    Hello Fellow Windows 10 Sufferers,

    Just had to succumb to a forced Windows 10 update yesterday and lost all sorts of functionality including Sticky Notes.

    I had two issues with Sticky Notes:

    1-- Lost access to the actual Sticky Notes App completely

    2-- Lost all the notes I had typed into the sticky notes tagged to my desktop

    How I fixed these issues...

    1-- followed the suggestion on this board posted by ReneLacore (Thank you for that!) with some slight modifications. Typed Sticky Notes into the Search Windows box located next to the Windows Start Icon. When I clicked on the search result (I only got one
    item in the results), it did in fact restore the Sticky Notes app, but all my previously entered notes had been lost.

    2-- To recover lost notes, I went to Google Search and found this:

    How To Recover Deleted Sticky Notes In Windows

    I followed all the steps and was able to recover all my lost notes in a Notepad document form.

    Hope this is helpful. I should mention that I am a computer newbie, so this may not be the most elegant set of recommendations. Hope it helps!

    BAD Microsoft. BAD, BAD Microsoft!
