How To Restore Sticky Notes on Windows



Step 1.
Navigate to the C:\Users\<UserName>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Sticky Notes directory
Step 2.
Right-click on StickyNotes.snt, and select Restore Previous Versions. This will pull the file from your latest restore point, if available.

The above steps have been tested OK on a Windows 7 system and should work OK on other Windows versions. 

 If you need to migrate a user profile from one computer to another, simply copy the StickyNotes.snt file from the old system to the new one and then proceed with Step 2.

Generally, if you close the Sticky Note by right-clicking it on the taskbar, it closes the Sticky Note application. However, next time you open Sticky Notes your data will return. The same also applies if you leave the Sticky Note up when rebooting your computer.

If for any reason the above steps do not work for you, check out our follow-up article for more troubleshooting steps.
