Windows 10: How do I search within a sticky note?

You can search all through all of your notes from the note list to find the note with the search term, but how do you search within the sticky note that you have opened. I have tried using the shortcuts like CTRL-F, but it doesn't seem to do anything. Is this even possible?

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.

 

Can't type in search bar or sticky notes

Hi Helen,

It's quite unusual because based on your description, you have multiple laptops and you can't use the Search and Sticky Notes. In this case, since this is happening on all of your device, then we suggest is that you try to reset the Sticky Notes app. Just
simply go to Settings, select Apps, look for
Sticky Notes under the Apps & features tab, click Sticky Notes to open the
Advanced options, then click Reset.

Now, to troubleshoot the issue with Search, you can run the
Search and Indexing Troubleshooter.

Just follow these steps on how to run the troubleshooter:

• Press Windows key + X, on the keyboard then click
  Control Panel.
• Under the Control Panel tab, click Troubleshooting. If you can't see that option, click on
  View by to change the icons.
• Click on Search and Indexing Troubleshooter, then run the tool.

Let us know the outcome.

 

the sticky note application.

Hi,

Sticky Notes is one of the default programs for Windows 10. Type Sticky Notes in the search box, then press enter. If you are encountering an error opening Sticky Notes, we recommend resetting the application. Follow the steps below:

• Open Settings.
  
• Click Apps, then Apps & features in the left pane.
  
• Locate Sticky Notes, then click Advanced options.
  
• Click Reset.
  

Keep us in the loop with the result.
