Tech Tip – Use "Sticky Notes" for Quick Reminders and To-Do Lists

Sticky Notes in Windows allows you to jot down reminders, ideas, or to-do lists and keep them open on your desktop for quick reference. Here's how to Use Sticky Notes:

Open Sticky Notes:

- Press Win + S, type Sticky Notes, and open the app.

Create a New Note:

- Click the + icon to create a new note. Type your reminder or task. You can colour cose it and even add an image.

Keep Notes Visible on the Desktop:

- Once created, the note will remain open on your desktop until you manually close it. Arrange it anywhere on your screen, and it will stay even after you restart your computer (as long as Sticky Notes is re-enabled).

Access Saved Notes Later:

- Sticky Notes automatically saves your content to your Microsoft account or local storage. To reopen your notes, open the Sticky Notes app again, and all previous notes will appear.
