Windows 10: Cortana's "Take a note" doesn't save note

Cortana's "take a note" crashes after a note is either spoken or written. The screen below just closes instead of presenting me with the screen "Here is your note" and the symbol of onenote besides it. As a result, the notes aren't being saved in any onenote notebook. I've tried restarting the pc, reinstalling onenote, reinstalling cortana, creating a new account, changing the default onenote notebook but nothing seems to work. The same thing is happening in my surface book 2 and in another windows pc. Both are running the last update of windows 10.

Sticky Notes - Saving the notes?


I've taken to using Sticky Notes recently and love them, but today I've had them crash on me for the first time and I lost some of the notes.

I'm wondering, is there some kind of modified version or something that would allow saving the notes?

I don't mean saving them to some particular destination as a file, but just saving the current notes so that if a crash happens those would be the ones that are restored, rather than what happened to me which is that what was restored was the notes I had the last time Sticky Notes closed properly.

 

Sticky Notes - Saving the notes?


Just an observation, I have Sticky notes on my W7 & my W10 computers. Stickynote.exe was listed in many recent crashes on my W7 machine and for the last 2 weeks, there are failures in Reliability Monitor on my W10 computer saying that Sticky Notes has failed to update ( this all happened after the 1607 upgrade ).
So I went here Stickies and downloaded Stickies. It's a small program and it is way better than MS Sticky Notes. I put it on my W7 & W10 computers and it works great and is free.

Hi Gary,

To better assist you regarding your concern, can you tell us what are you trying to do with your sticky notes? Are you trying to add a reminder to an open sticky note? If so, kindly follow the steps below:

• Open Sticky Notes
• Write a note
• Indicate the time and date you want Cortana to remind you. (ex. October 14, 2014 3:15 AM)
• After doing so, the text of date and time will be color Blue. Click the
  date and time.
• Click Add Reminder
• Customize your reminder and then, click Remind.

By then, Cortana will now save your reminder.

Let us know how it goes.
