Hello Steve,
Sorry, but saving the sticky note as a file is not a option. As long as you do not delete the sticky notes, they will stay on your desktop even after a shutdown, restart, log off, sleep, or hibernate. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Self built custom OS Windows 7 Ultimate x64 SP1 CPU Intel i7-980X 3.3 Ghz (3.48 Ghz OC'd) Motherboard ASUS P6X58D Premium Memory 12 GB (2GBx6) DDR3 PC3-16000 2000 MHz Kingston HyperX Graphics Card Sapphire HD5870 Eyefinity 6 2GB Sound Card Realtek HD Audio ALC889 Integrated Chip Monitor(s) Displays 3x 27" Asus VE278Q Screen Resolution 1920x1080 Keyboard Logitech Cordless Desktop MX 5500 Revolution Mouse Logitech Cordless Desktop MX 5500 Revolution PSU OCZ Series Gold OCZZ1000M 1000W Case Corsair Obsidian 800D Cooling Thermalright Ultra 120 Extreme Copper CPU heat sink w/120 MM Hard Drives 160GB OCZ RevoDrive X2

I like it and then.............. Yes, it's useful but what I don't like is that when you have one or more sticky notes active, then you have an icon called "Sticky Notes" in the taskbar. IF I ever want to know or see if I have any notes all I have to do is go to Show Desktop. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Acer Aspire 5738PG OS Win 7 Home Premium Memory 4GB Monitor(s) Displays Notebook LCD |

Hello Baitmn, and welcome to Seven Forums.
Deleting all of the sticky notes will have them not display at startup anymore. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Self built custom OS Windows 7 Ultimate x64 SP1 CPU Intel i7-980X 3.3 Ghz (3.48 Ghz OC'd) Motherboard ASUS P6X58D Premium Memory 12 GB (2GBx6) DDR3 PC3-16000 2000 MHz Kingston HyperX Graphics Card Sapphire HD5870 Eyefinity 6 2GB Sound Card Realtek HD Audio ALC889 Integrated Chip Monitor(s) Displays 3x 27" Asus VE278Q Screen Resolution 1920x1080 Keyboard Logitech Cordless Desktop MX 5500 Revolution Mouse Logitech Cordless Desktop MX 5500 Revolution PSU OCZ Series Gold OCZZ1000M 1000W Case Corsair Obsidian 800D Cooling Thermalright Ultra 120 Extreme Copper CPU heat sink w/120 MM Hard Drives 160GB OCZ RevoDrive X2

Perhaps I'm being too picky, but the one thing that annoys me about Sticky Notes is that it continues to display it's icon on the Taskbar.
