    Can you have Sticky Notes from Different MS accounts on Windows 10 desktop at same time?


    I think I know the answer to this is NO but asking anyway, I would have thought a really useful feature but cannot see others asking?


    I would really like to have different Sticky Notes on my Win 10 desktop, one from work MS account & one from MS personal account.


    It seems you can only sign out & then have to sign in the other, can't even switch quickly but anyway would really like both in view as same time.


    I have the work PC with the same sticky as my personal PC so my staff & I can view/edit.

    However I have personal sticky's currently on the same account as only way & I do not want my staff to have access, I know if not open it would not be immediately visible but they can easily open the lists & click to place on the desktop.


    One note seems to have allow multiple accounts but not Sticky's.


    I would be happy if could be across multiple desktops but if you open Sticky's on the 2nd desktop it jumps to Desktop 1, you can drag the sticky but is the same account anyway.


    I use Android and would be nice for similar but not so important.

    In fact a different issue I have not needed to investigate really is on the Android OneNote App I cannot add a 2nd Account, says "can't sign in?"

    The + option is there like the Win 10 desktop which does allow being logged in multiple account but not the Android version I have to sign out and sign into the new/different account.


    Another question, is there a way to view the sticky's in the OneNote Win 10 App.

    I know easy enough to open the Sticky App but seems odd they are not accessible from the OneNote App itself, especially as the Android App has it clearly available on the main page at the bottom, Notebooks : Search : Sticky Notes

    :)

    sticky notes onmultiple desktops

    Hello Cathy,


    • When you say “multiple desktops for different users” are you referring to multiple desktop on single user account or you are unable to open Sticky notes on a particular user account?
    If you have created multiple desktop using the task view on a user account, and if you try to open Sticky notes on the second desktop it’s by design it will automatically open the sticky notes on desktop 1.

    Hope this helps.

    Sticky Notes: Individual notes disappearing from desktop after random time

    This particular issue is driving me batty!

    I put a sticky note on my desktop, then after a random period of time, sometimes days, sometimes weeks, the note randomly disappears from my desktop on start up. If I open the main list, it is still there, so I can get it back, but I shouldn't have to go
    through that step in the first place.

    I have only been having this issue since running a Sticky Notes upgrade to Sticky Notes 3.

    I use Sticky Notes for motivational notes from the month; however, I'll be lucky if the note is still visible on the desktop for a week (two at most). I also use them to give myself goals for the month (or quarterly), but with the disappearing notes from
    the desktop itself, these notes don't provide the motivation or the checklist like they should.

    As I said above, if I open the main list, they are still there, so I can recover them, but I shouldn't need to do that. Once I add a sticky note to my desktop, it should stay there until I tell it to go-away.

    Is there a setting somewhere that I'm missing?

    In addition, ever since running the upgrade, multiple taskbar icons appear for each Sticky Note open on my desktop. The previous version put only a single icon there.

    I am running Sticky Notes 3.6.76.0 on Windows 10 Home OS Build 18362.239

    Sticky Note Missing

    Hi KeithRawlings,

    I'm Charles, an Independent advisor trying to help.

    Let's see if with the following steps we can solve the problem:

    1.- Open >> Sticky notes, when located on the taskbar (Right click on the option) >> Select: List of Notes, now check if your note is in that list.

    2.- Follow the steps suggested by the Windows MVP in your article

    I hope the steps work for you

    Attentive to any comments

    Have a happy day

    Best Regards,

    Charles.
