We still use Sticky Notes as a powerful reminder to plan our day and copy text from another application. When we open multiple notes in Windows 10, they are automatically grouped into the same tab by default. However, after installing the latest 1903 updates, they are all separated in the taskbar. I set the taskbar to auto-hide, but that doesn’t work either. What can we do to solve this problem?
It’s frustrating to have to open each note to see them all. If we are. B. have about 8 sticky notes, we have to log in individually to see them all. It is useless and takes up much more space on the taskbar. This may be a new feature that allows users to move individual notes to different desktops. But the basic function has been compromised. You can try the following solutions to group sticky notes.
What is the reason why the sticky notes icon is not grouped in the taskbar.
According to several reports from affected users, due to a design change in the Sticky Note utility, the Sticky Note icon in the taskbar is not combined when you open multiple notes individually. This design change leads to the following problem: Each note opened in Sticky Notes appears separately on the taskbar and takes up a full section of the taskbar.
Your sticky notes will not be updated. It seems that any outdated application or system software is the cause of many performance problems or errors.
Before proceeding with the next steps, make sure that the Sticky Notes application is updated to the latest version or not. Because the latest version of Sticky Notes 3.7 no longer has this particular problem of non-combination.
