Sticky Notes Icon on taskbar is not combined

What ever made you think that this change would be a good one.  It is horrible, unnecessary, and totally unproductive for those of us that use multiple sticky notes. Please change this back.

This is exactly my problem. I came to the same conclusion as you about the cause. Unless lots of people complain, MS won't bother fixing it.

Sadly and unfortunately even they get a lot of complaints they will likely not change it. They make these kinds of stupid decisions/changes that only create annoyances or unusability from something that was working great and they ignore any complaints or requests to revert. There're litanies of forum strings of users begging for them to return a form or function that was removed/negatively changed that go unanswered.  My system was just updated and I'm here a year and a half later because this horrible issue is still in effect. Stick Notes is now unusable for me. I don't want to combine ALL of my taskbar icons and even if I did I STILL have to click on every single note, one at a time, to view them.

Wow. Thanks Microsoft for turning Sticky Notes into absolute garbage. I lost a note because I accidentally closed it while trying to log in to sync my notes, which doesn't work either. I'm signed in to my Microsoft account across the board (Office, Teams, SharePoint, OneDrive, etc,) so I know there's not an issue with my account, so it must be another side effect of the notes "update".

Here in January 2021 with the same issue. The newest update got rid of a lot of good features, including this and customizing the task bar colour, for seemingly no apparent reason. It's incredibly frustrating. This is why I put off updates as long as possible. Windows, if it ain't broke, DON'T FIX IT.

Amen! I've been putting off updates for as long as I possibly can, but this last one didn't let me put it off anymore. Incredibly frustrating to see perfectly good features you use everyday getting destroyed for NO REASON.
