Windows 10: Issue With Sticky Notes App

For some reason whenever I open my note list on the sticky note application, it is completely black and grayed out. None of my notes are showing in the layout and I can't even interact with the "X".



I tried resetting and uninstalling/reinstalling the app and restarting my computer but no avail. Any help will be appreciated!

Sticky notes

Hi Idalee,

Yes, there is a possibility that the recent update may have disabled or corrupted the apps. For us to isolate this problem, we suggest repairing or resetting Sticky Notes on your PC. Follow these steps:

• Open Settings and click Apps.
• On the Apps & features tab, locate the name of the missing app.
• Click the app and select Advanced options, then click Repair.
  
• If the Repair option is not available or does not resolve the issue, you may also try the
  Reset option. However, it's more likely that you will lose any app data that was saved.
• Once the repair or reset is completed, Sticky Notes should now reappear in the app list.
• You may now pin it to the Start Menu.

Update us with the outcome.

Regards.
