This was of absolute no help with my problem. My motherboard crashed & my comp. tech was able to save the sticky notes, however I have them in a CD & tried to open it with a different computer & I could not open it. I also don’t know what program to open it with (since the comp. asked me) & to top it off, I chose to try & open it with Word & the text of the notes got encoded & the options given to decode it, are useless.
