Windows 10: I lost the contents of a Sticky Note

I use Sticky Notes on a PC with Windows 10 Home, version 1903. I was editing a Sticky Notes note, when the contents of that note were suddenly deleted. I am not sure if I inadvertently did something to cause this, or if it was a bug. In any event, I desperately need the contents of that note back. Is there any way to recover the contents, even it requires me taking the computer to an IT professional? Unfortunately, I do not think I had the back-up setting turned on for my computer? Any advise would be very much appreciated!

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

Attentive to any comments

Have a happy day

Best Regards,
