Windows 10: MS Sticky Notes' shortcut, and system tray icon installation?

Downloaded the Sticky Notes App from the MS store, installed it, and it's not the traditional .exe app, but something new. Found instructions to create a shortcut through Windows Explorer, but because of this it slows the activation. Also, I would prefer it to be in the system tray. Is this possible?

Sticky Notes 3.0?

Sandeep -

Thanks for the answer, but unless I'm missing something, Sticky Notes is one of the MS apps that's can't be uninstalled via your recommended method.

I performed a 'reset,' but that didn't have the desired effect, and I'm still running v.2.
