After win 10 update, sticky notes now uses a separate taskbar tab for each note. Before update, all notes were in one tab.

***Title Modified Original: sticky notes***

    Yes, agreed. Super annoying. 

    I only have 4 notes, but if I hit the taskbar button before, all 4 would come to the front display. Now I have to choose which one I want to view. Which is usually more than one.

    My thoughts, exactly. But, if you think Microsoft will quickly fix this because of complaints, I think not. After they eliminated the drag and drop picture arrangement feature from Win XP and Win 7, they never fixed it. They think they have a captive audience so they don't care about complaints or customer convenience.

    Whoever thought this update was a good idea, and whoever approved it, should be fired and then whipped for good measure. I cannot even fathom what kind of thought process that managed to roll on and decide this was a good idea. Sticky Notes just went from helpful and useful to messy and useless. If you have 20+ notes, good luck keeping track of which was which for you to click in the taskbar now... plus you'll have to click twenty times to bring them up when previously you just had to click once.

    Typical Microsoft to make an update absolutely NO ONE would ever ask for, and push it through just because. Seriously, revert that change because it's an even bigger ****-up than what EA managed with Mass Effect 3 ending.

    Please share the app you're using.

    Sticky notes just became unusable.

    If Google Keep worked as a desktop overlay just as Sticky Notes, that would be the solution.
