Vista - Accidentally deleted my notes!!!

02-05-2008

Hi Everybody,
I hope that somebody who's smarter than me can answer my question. I
accidentally clicked on the cross on the left bottom of the Note and all my
notes were gone! The yellow paper is still there bit does anyone know how to
get them back or is it gone now?

Thanks for your reply!

Click Start button > paste in the following line and hit enter

notepad "%LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\Windows Sidebar\settings.ini"

Look for lines like

1=
2=
....

If they're not in there then unfortunately they've probably gone. Might be
worth making a note to be more careful in future ;-)

Are you talking about the notes on the sidebar? If so, if you clicked the x,
they are indeed gone. The x deletes that particular page of notes if you
will.
