I recently noticed that the default sticky note app that comes in Win 7 has just vanished. Seriously, there is no trace of it anymore. Anyone know where it's default location is and has anyone else had this happen to them?
Hello ThatDuckGuy,
It should be located at C:\Windows\system32\StikyNot.exe by default.
The shorcut in the Start menu is located at All Programs, Accessories, Sticky Notes.
If it is not at these locations, then check to make sure that you have not turned off Tablet PC Components in Windows Features.
Hope this helps,
Shawn

Here is a screenshot of when I check for the file location.
As you can see it is missing the file location for some reason. Also when I search this is the result:

If you guys have any other advice I'd love to hear it.
After checking that it is currently selected in the checklist.
Hi ThatDuckGuy,
Recheck the C:\Windows\System32 folder. Your image just shows some of the sub-folders in this location. If you scroll further down, you will see a long list of files. Scroll down until you see this:
The highlighted file is the one you require.
Hah. There it is! Thanks I got it, now I'll just make a new shortcut for it on the dektop.
Just right click it and pin it to your choice (taskbar -Start menu)
I can't resist,So that was a STICKY situation resolved.
