Sticky Notes are useful when you want to take quick notes or set a reminder to do something later. But sometimes stickers can complicate your life due to various mistakes and problems. In this article, we’re going to discuss how to fix most of these types of sticky note problems. If you’re having problems with sticky notes (for example, sticky notes won’t open or get stuck after a while), try these simple solutions and the problem will be resolved pretty quickly.

Back-Up Sticky Notes Files

Future solutions will delete all the notes you saved on Sticky Notes. So don’t go to the backup step. To copy your old notes to a safe place (text, Word or Excel …), you can find the note files in% appdata% \ Microsoft \ Sticky Notes \ StickyNotes.snt (on Windows 7/8/10 and before Windows 10 1607 update ) or C: \ Users \% username% \ AppData \ Local \ Packages \ Microsoft.MicrosoftStickyNotes_8wekyb3d8bbwe \ LocalState \ plum.sqlite (on Windows 10, version 1607 and newer). Then copy the files to a different folder.

5. In the Sticky Notes preferences window, scroll down and click Recover to fix Sticky Notes.
   Wait a bit, this process will only take a minute.
   Close the preferences window.
   Open Sticky Notes and try creating a new note. If the issue still bothers you, go to the next solution.

Uninstall and reinstall Sticky Notes

If an app is not working as expected, the general troubleshooting procedure is to reset it. However, some people may find that this method does not solve their problem. If so, you will need to use PowerShell to uninstall and reinstall the app.

Enter “PowerShell” in the search box and run Windows PowerShell as an administrator.
Run the following command to remove Sticky Notes
«Get-AppxPackage Microsoft.MicrosoftStickyNotes | Remove-AppxPackage “(without quotes)

You should now completely uninstall the Sticky Notes application from your computer. You can now reinstall the application using the command below.

Get-AppxPackage – All Microsoft.MicrosoftStickyNotes Users | For each {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register “$ ($ _. InstallLocation) \ AppXManifest.xml”}

Or, simply re-download the app directly from the Windows Store.

Re-register Sticky Notes

If the stickers don’t work as expected, try saving them again.

Step 1. Open Command Prompt or PowerShell with administrator rights.
Step 2: Copy and paste the following command to the CMD screen:

• PowerShell -ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted -Command “& {$ manifest = (Get-AppxPackage * MicrosoftStickyNotes *). InstallLocation + ‘\ AppxManifest.xml’; Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register $ manifest}”
• Step 3: Press Enter.
• Step 4. Restart your computer to check if the stickers are working.
