Not just not as classy. I used to put sticky notes at various locations on the screen and also make some larger to get my attention. Cannot do this with the notes list.
Sticky Notes Icon on taskbar is not combined

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

>Right click on any sticky notes tab
>Click Notes List - Here, a new tab will appear that lists all you sticky notes
This only takes up one tab in the task bar.
>You can proceed on closing all other sticky notes tabs.
Please back-up your notes first. I will not be responsible if you lose them.
