Download install and run Auotoruns from MS (free).

It shows everything that loads on startup. If Sticky Notes is being launched directly from a startup location then the Find option in Autoruns should find it.

If it's launched somehow by something else, it won't.

If you perform a clean boot (Google or see tutorial if unsure how) does it still launch?

Hello @KAVS;,

Very strange.

Did you try re-setting Sticky Notes in the Advanced options of Apps & features first, then performing the change of DWORD, and finally Restarting?

I hope this helps!
