In this tutorial we will show you where sticky notes are saved on your computer. The sticky notes feature has been entirely changed n windows 7. Sticky notes are saved in the .snt file format. You can follow the step by step tutorial below and find out how to backup sticky notes.
Step 1 — Using the start menu to access the folder
To backup sticky notes in windows 7, you must find the sticky notes location, where they are saved. To access the location of these files, open up the start menu and type in:
C:users”the name of your profile”, which in this case is “user”appdataroaming
What we are doing over here through the search box is in a way browsing the folders by typing in the address. Once you hit enter, the folder will open up.
Step 2 — Alternate way
You can directly access the folder by typing in the search bar:
%appdata%
Alternatively, you could simply browse through My computer and access the folder by navigating through the windows explorer.
Step 3 — Creating a backup
Once here, open up the Microsoft folder and locate the Sticky Notes folder. And this is the basic sticky notes location, where all of the data is saved. Double click on the folder to open it and there you can find the .snt file which is used by the application.
Now simply click on the control key on your keyboard, click and drag the file on your desktop. This will make a copy of the file on your desktop.
And that’s it for how to backup sticky notes. A backup has been created for the sticky notes on your desktop.

I factory reset my computer can i still get my old sticky notes that I had before i factory reset my computer
wait can you get back the sticky note you deleted that you didnt have backed up
thanks dude. i just reformatted my laptop and i forgot to save the info on the sticky notes. . lifesaver man.
Here is a suggestion to create multiple backup copies/versions. I created a BAT file to backup my Sticky Note file to a folder I created on my Cdrive named Sticky Notes Backup and added the date & time to the backup copy. Here is the BAT file info (just copy and paste into a new BAT file)
cd "C:Sticky Notes Backup"
copy "C:Users%username%AppDataRoamingMicrosoftSticky NotesStickyNotes.snt" StickyNotes-%date:~-4,4%%date:~-10,2%%date:~-7,2%-%time:~0,2%%time:~3,2%.snt
You can run the BAT file using the task scheduler so it runs automatically. I have it set to run whenever I logon to my account.
Enjoy!
