Windows 10: Can't find menu for sync in my sticky notes app on Windows 10.

Hi. I am using Sticky notes a lot and i want to sync my files from my laptop to my stationary computer. Both computers are running Windows 10 and i have never had problems syncronizing my notes before until i recently had to change my SSD on my stationary. Now when i open sticky notes on my stationary i only get an empty box with notes but no menu with all my notes in chronological order. By clicking on the 3 dots this white box is all i get under settings. Also windows wont allow me to uninstall the sticky notes app so i can install it again. Can someone help me so i can sync my notes?

Was this the WIndows 10 Upgrade from WIndows 7, 8 or 8.1?

Check now for a C:\Windows.old folder that is created during an Upgrade. If that folder is found, you can

Show Hidden Files and Folders in Windows 10 and then follow the steps here:

• To backup sticky notes in Windows 10/8.1/8/7:

STEP 1. Type %AppData%\Microsoft\Sticky Notes in the windows.old folder Search box.

STEP 2. Copy StickyNotes.snt to a safe location.

• To restore sticky notes:

STEP 1. Type %AppData%\Microsoft\Sticky Notes in start menu search box or run and press Enter.

STEP 2. Copy the StickyNotes.snt file from your backup folder and paste it in the folder that opens. Agree to overwrite the old file, or delete it first before copying. If it balks then install and use the

Take Ownership Shortcut on the folder so you can replace the .snt file.

If you don't have Windows.old folder, do you have a backup image of your old install which we can help you mount to browse into the old files?

If not then your notes may be lost. In the future use Notepad or Wordpad which can more easily save Files to your Documents, or back up the Sticky Notes file regularly following the above.
