    creating WINDOWS 10 shortcut key for the STICKY NOTES app not working


    When I try to create a shortcut key in the PROPERTIES box using "CTRL+ALT+S" for WIn 10's STICKY NOTES, it works when I put it on the desktop. However, as soon as I move it to my own folder (with my other shortcuts) the shortcut key no longer works. How come?

    :)

    • Select and right click the app.
    • Click Open file location.
    • Right click and select Properties.
    • In the shortcut key: tab, press the keyboard key that you want to create a shortcut with.
    • Click Apply to save the changes.
    Kindly note that you have to be the Administrator to make the changes.


    Let us know how it goes.

    C:\Program Files\WindowsApps

    To gain access you have to change permissions. Info on that is widely posted.
    How will having access to it help you? Note - these are not exe files and don't therefore behave in the way you're probably used to.

    If I create a shortcut to StickyNotes in the start menu and set a hot key in that, that works.
    C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu
    or
    C:\Users\<your folder name>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu
