Windows 10: Sticky Notes - Trying to resize a sticky note is more difficult than it used to be

I only noticed this problem about 2 months ago, but the only way I can resize a Sticky Note is by dragging the bottom edge of it downwards. If I try to drag from the top of the note, the resizing arrows don't stay active long enough for me to drag it (they only stay active for a split second and then immediately is unavailable). If I VERY carefully hover the mouse cursor on an EXACT spot on the top edge of the note sometimes the cursor stays active long enough for me to resize from the top. In the past, it was very easy to adjust the size of a sticky note by dragging on any edge that I wanted.

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,
