  1. Sticky notes reverting to back up after I restart my computer


    I recently had to get a new computer, and I needed to transfer my sticky notes folder over since I wasn't signed in. But now, every time I restart my computer, it doesn't save any new notes or edits I have made. It just reverts all of my sticky notes to the original back up from my old computer. Is there any way I can retrieve the missing notes or even just fix this so my notes start saving again?

    :)

  2. 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.
